| Local foodbanks are run by The Trussell Trust. Where families are experiencing difficulties, school are able to issue vouchers for you to be able to access support from your local foodbank. Please contact us via the school office. All enquiries will be dealt with sensitivity and confidentiality. | Local authorities have been provided with one off funding to support vulnerable families who have been particularly affected by the pandemic to ensure that they have the help and support they need to afford food, energy, water bills and associated costs. This support is given either in vouchers, emergency food parcels or with credit for energy. | Olio is an app that connects neighbours with each other and with local businesses so surplus food can be shared, not thrown away. The app allows you to both share and browse listings to support those in need. |
