“The foodbank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline”. We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. Started in 2012 by the churches of the town, Market Drayton Foodbank is committed to helping those facing food poverty, whilst also seeking to help our clients address some of its underlying causes. The Foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust network, but became its own Charitable Incorporated Organisation in May 2022.
