M&S Flowerdown Weston-Super-Mare

The Weston Foodbank provides emergency food parcels for individuals and families who have been referred to us by a range of agencies. We also provide a range of additional items, such as toiletries, blankets, pet food, pots and pans and all things which could be useful to people in crisis. We offer a listening ear, comfort and signposting too.

The Nailsea Community Group was set up in March 2020 in response to the Covid crisis. Since then the group has gone from strength to strength and has evolved from a Covid-response team to a real Community Group that highlights what an amazing community we have in Nailsea. Community Larder - this has been established to stop food from going to waste and is supported by local shops, both independently and through the charities FareShare, Neighbourly, and FoodShare. It has an average of 55 visits a day and is open to all residents and has no impact on our Foodbank stock. #feedbelliesnotbins Community Food Club - this is open to those who receive benefits. Membership costs £1 per household and entitles members to a weekly bag of store-cupboard items worth over £10 for £3.50. End Holiday Hunger - When schools are not running we are endeavouring to provide food for every child in Nailsea who receives Free School Meals in term time. Nailsea Active - this initiative continues to inspire people to stay mentally and physically active and to make the most of our amazing local facilities. We are very proud to live in Nailsea and would not be able to provide the above without every volunteer along with every resident, business, and organisation that has helped us along the way. Thank you so much for your continued support.
