The Foodbank is More Than Just Food Provision
‘Our vision is to see a Craigavon in which no one would live in fear or the shame of hunger, unsure of where their next meal might come from.’
To see this vision turn into reality, we can’t hope to do it all by ourselves. For this reason, we are really proud to have built up such a strong referral network and relationship with over 50 local agencies.
Some of these referral partners include:
· ABC Community Advice
· ABC Council
· PIPS
· Salvation Army
. Southern Health & Care Trust
. Extern
. Women’s Aid
. Local MLA offices
· Sure Start
· Asda/Tesco
· Trussell Trust
As a part of the Trussell network, we partner with other food banks across the UK to grow and develop our practices.
