What we do..
2024 Stats
- In 2024 we distributed 23, 122 food parcels and equivalents, which equates to 604, 180 food items out in Milton Keynes and surrounding area.
- 44% increase in food bank service usage compared to 2023.
- 4, 743 households supported in 2024 alone.
Emergency food parcels.
These are bags of long-life food that are designed to create meals for three days. Anyone can access these if they find themselves without enough money to buy food for whatever reason.
We have 13 serving centres located across Milton Keynes.
Top-up Shops.
These are for people in financial hardship who need longer term support. Families can buy up to 20 items for £4 and access other types of support and advice as well.
We’ve now rolled out 7 Top-up shops altogether – 5 off our mobile van which travels around the areas in the most need.
This year the shop has been visited over 7,087 times – that’s almost a 200% increase since last year.
"Excellent organisation who have helped me recently when going through a difficult time."
