About

Luton Foodbank aims to eradicate food poverty in Luton.We support people to take steps to overcome the problems that brought them to us.We run entirely for the benefit of people in and around Luton who need emergency food.We provide non-perishable food that is donated at collection points across the town.People needing food are given a voucher by front-line professional agencies such as Luton Advice Network, Age Concern, children’s centres, mental health charities, etc. These referral agencies also offer immediate advice on dealing with the problems leading to the visit.Clients present their vouchers at one of the many distribution points across Luton and professionals from Citizens Advice are on hand to offer further advice. We log usage patterns to identify individuals with recurring problems who may need further help.
