Story
Our congregations are united in our efforts to support Blackburn Foodbank. As we can't meet together for our usual outdoor events, we have decided to invite everyone to go on their own walk, share photos and donate to this worthy cause.

Blackburn foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust national network of foodbanks, providing a minimum of 3 days worth of nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people in crisis in Blackburn.We collect non-perishable food which is donated by the public through churches, schools and supermarket collections. Front line care professionals e.g. social workers, doctors etc refer people to the foodbank with a voucher which is exchanged for 3 days worth of food. Over a chat, a meal and a drink we listen and signpost clients to other agencies for support.
