Broxtowe Community Projects runs a community food and nappy bank to alleviate poverty, especially food and fuel poverty and social isolation across Broxtowe. Our food bank is unique in that it is self referral, we ask no questions and do not require lengthy forms to be completed, our only criteria is that you live in the Broxtowe Borough Council area. This enables us to respond rapidly to requests, often being able to provide and deliver a food parcel the same day it is requested. Our food parcels are well thought out and are nutritionally balanced and include a variety of fresh food such as milk, cheese, eggs, bread, fresh fruit and vegetables, in addition to cupboards staples such as tins, packets and treats. We also provide baby care items including nappies, wipes and formula milk, toiletries, pet food and household cleaning items. We try to accommodate special diets and food allergies such as gluten free, dairy free, vegan and Halal. BCP is very grateful for all the support provided by our local community who generously donate food and money, fundraise and volunteer for our charity. We are members of FareShare and collect surplus food through the Neighbourly platform. We are always in need of new volunteers, we provide volunteer training and employ a Volunteer Coordinator so help and support is always available. Volunteers collect surplus food and bring it to the foodbank, help to prepare and pack food parcels, make deliveries, run our food bank drop-in sessions, provide support and advice to people in financial crisis, food & fuel poverty, as well as helping in the 'behind the scenes' roles of office admin and organisation. If you would like to volunteer with BCP and make a huge difference to the lives of local people who are struggling with poverty, then please get in touch with us using the contact details shown or pop in and see us one day on Chilwell Road (opposite the Co-op).

Feeding folk in crisis across the Meadows and the wider city. We gave away over 32 tonnes of food in 2025 to those in need and worked with others to lay on a free weekly community meal and a warm hub cafe, recycling food that would have otherwise gone to landfill.

Edwalton Food Hub CIC is a not-for-profit, community-led organisation providing free access to surplus food for the benefit of the local community. Surplus food received via Neighbourly is redistributed directly to individuals and households experiencing food insecurity. All food is provided for community support purposes only and is not sold or used for commercial gain. Distribution takes place through our food hub in a safe, inclusive, and dignified environment. Our service operates on a no-referral, no-eligibility and no-judgement basis. Access to food is never conditional, restricted, or dependent on payment, contribution, or participation of any kind. No individual is ever refused food due to an inability or decision not to contribute. From time to time, individuals may choose to make a voluntary donation to support the ongoing running of the organisation. Donations are entirely optional, unsolicited, and separate from food access. Any donations received are used solely to support the charitable objectives of Edwalton Food Hub CIC, including transport, storage, utilities, and maintaining daily operations. All activities are carried out in line with our community interest objectives, food safety requirements, and relevant regulations. Our purpose is to reduce food waste, support people facing food insecurity, and strengthen community resilience in a transparent and responsible manner
