Get Help
How to get help
If you need help from our food bank there are a few simple steps to follow.
The most important step is to get a food bank voucher.
In order to provide the most appropriate help for the circumstances of your situation we work with local agencies. If they feel you are struggling to put food on the table, they will issue you with a food bank voucher/voucher code. The local agency can also provide long term support if needed to help address some of the issues behind the reasons for your crisis.
Agencies we work with include:
Citizens Advice: 03442 451294 Foodbanks — Citizens Advice Lancashire West
West Lancashire Borough Council: 01695 577177 Food banks – West Lancashire Borough Council (westlancs.gov.uk)
