SDA Church Food Angels Foodbank

Hemel Hempstead, UK

We run a foodbank every Friday 6.30pm - 8pm from our Church Hall here in Bennetts End, Hemel Hempstead. Everyone is welcome to collect food, there is no charge and no referral is required to access our foodbank. We allow you to choose your food items, so you get the food you like, which helps everyone save on waste. We also offer light refreshments, so come along and stay for a chat with our friendly volunteers! Each week we collect surplus food from Sainsburys, Aldi and Gail's bakery. We also receive milk and fruit from Office Pantry. If you would like to donate to us, we would welcome any non-perishable food items and also accept food that would otherwise go to waste. We also donate toiletries to our service users and baby goods - nappies, wipes, milk and babyfood. Any surplus donations would be incredibly welcome!
