Food Bank Scheme

 

In November 2023 we introduced a new service to the charity in the form of a Food Bank Support Scheme. This scheme is designed to support a number of local food banks in Portsmouth and the surrounding areas as they strive to help those in need of support.

The project is led by committee Ben Brown who acts a the liaison for the charity and takes the donations to the food banks that we support.

We now have permanent donation points set up in the following locations:

  • The FFC Shop, 48B High Street, Cosham, PO6 3AG

  • Havant & Waterlooville FC, Martin Road, Havant, PO9 5TH

  • Basecamp Gym, Larchwood Avenue, Havant, PO9 3BE

At these locations you can donate any ambient / non perishable goods that we will then collect and re-distribute the items to local food banks.

In addition to the above we also take a mobile donation point to many of our fundraising events that enable us to continually support the many food banks that require help.

In 2025 we have supported over 650 families via 11 different food banks in and around Portsmouth and also topped up donations with £3500.
