Campaign by Story
This winter, thousands of families in Liverpool will face the cold without enough good food. Rising costs mean that many households will rely on foodbanks, where standard parcels often lack the fresh food needed for a healthy diet.
The Winter Boost Project will change this.
We are raising funds to help six emergency food providers in Liverpool provide good quality, fresh produce to include in their foodbank parcels – boosting nutrition and supporting health during the hardest months of the year.
How it works:
• You donate.
• Feeding Liverpool distributes the funds to the six emergency food providers.
• Each provider buys fresh fruits and vegetables locally.
• Each provider distributes the produce as part of their foodbank parcels.
• Families in crisis receive healthier parcels, improving both diets and wellbeing.
Every £5 donation provides one family with a foodbank parcel supplemented with enough fruits and vegetables.
In Winter 2025, this project boosted 8,301 emergency food parcels with fresh fruits and vegetables, supporting a total of 3,718 people. This year, you can help Liverpool families eat well, even in a crisis.
One Project Partner explains how the Winter Boost Project is providing vital support:
[W]e believe fresh fruit and vegetables are essential for healthy, nutritious food parcels. Through our Winter Boost partnership, we source high-quality, fresh produce directly from local Liverpool businesses. This ensures our recipients receive fruit and vegetables that stay fresh longer, giving families time to prepare nutritious meals without waste. We're not just providing food – we're offering dignity and better nutrition to those experiencing extreme poverty in our community.” – Michelle Roach, Founder and Director (New Beginnings, Improving Lives CIC)
Give to our appeal today and boost health, hope and dignity for residents experiencing crisis across Liverpool.
