This week statistics showed almost 6 million people are now receiving #UniversalCredit . If the £20 uplift is cut in April, the impact will be devastating. The UK Govt must #KeepTheLifeline long-term and extend it to legacy benefits. Read our blog now > trusselltrust.org/2021/02/25/168…

Dried pulses
Dry rice (not ready cooked if possible)

Washing-up liquid, (small bottles please).

All other donations gratefully received - many thanks.

Here they are again... a new week. Another curry. Tired but still smiling as they bless more frontline workers with a biryani lunch. Selfless generosity at its best. Thank you again Panas Gurkha Restaurant

We are always very grateful for the donations we receive. Donations can be made to our warehouse at Shooters Hill or at a number of supermarkets that support us across the Borough. We have lots of Pasta & Rice at the moment. #thankyou

We've been moved & inspired by the generosity of our local community - giving time, money and food to our Foodbank, to help our neighbours who've been hit hard by the pandemic.

So we've created this short film to show people what we've been doing - together. Thank you

Bravo to our incredible volunteers last night who stayed outside in -1 temperatures for almost 3 hours whilst managing the queue and ensuring the safety of people using the food bank! With demand increasing, we’re so humbled by our volunteers’ kindness to help people in need.👏🏻❤️

On Saturday the folks from Take One Leave One will be outside Bethnal Green tube 12-4pm. If you have a coat going spare please bring one, if you need a coat please come and grab one! #TakeOneLeaveOne

Today we have a team from McDonald's UK Bishop Auckland store #1378 giving up their time to volunteer and help out at our warehouse.

Massive thanks to MrsP at @prendergast_PLS Primary for your hard work organising this week’s campaign, and all the wonderful donors who brought food to the school gate this week. Thanks Coco for help bringing it all to Foodbank! Incredible generosity! #FoodbankHeroes

This #FoodbankFriday , we want to say thank you to all of the amazing #foodbank volunteers who support their communities all year-round. Your dedication and commitment throughout this crisis has been nothing short of inspiring – thank you so much! 💚 > twitter.com/RugbyFoodbank/…

Our new report is clear. Action *must* be taken to ensure our benefits system provides people with enough £ for essentials. It’s vital the UK govt commits to #KeepTheLifeline & extend it to legacy benefits to make sure we’re all protected from poverty > independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

URGENT APPEAL: We are getting really low on some key stock items: tinned vegetables, tomatoes, meat and fish, and long-life juice. If you are going into a supermarket for essential items, please consider adding a couple of items to our collection bin if you can :)

Yesterday we received a wonderful donation of personal hygiene supplies from Beauty Banks. Toiletries are requested very frequently by our customers, but seldom donated, so we're so happy to be able to give out all these items. Many thanks to Beauty Banks for your support.

‘We’re so grateful’ - words we hear so often from clients who feel they have nowhere else to turn to for help in crisis.

The #foodbanks in our network offer incredible support to their communities - but that support simply shouldn't be needed. Together, we need to act and build a #HungerFreeFuture > trusselltrust.org/hungerfree
