Bassingbourn Care and Share Foodbank

Open every Thursday between 2.00-4.00pm and 6.00-8.00pm

The foodbank is now situated at the rear of the Old School Community Centre building and we would ask that you use the rear door to gain access.

The foodbank has been fortunate enough to be given a regular fortnightly donation from Tesco/Fareshare.  As part of the agreement for this donation, the food bank needs to be “manned”.

The new system is going to make it fairer for everyone.  You will be asked to fill out a form when you use the foodbank, giving your first name, road name and date of visit. You will then be able to select 8 items from the list.  If an item is not available, you will be offered an alternative.  The information is completely confidential and will be used as evidence of the number of people using the foodbank and also help us to receive further help in the future to develop the range of items available.

Although we are now fortunate enough to receive a fortnightly donation from Tesco, we would still very much appreciate any donations from the residents of the village.  The foodbank donations that Tesco distribute are spread out through lots of local villages and Royston, so we cannot rely on these donations alone.
