Foodbanks in Fife

27 April 2016

People can struggle to afford food and end up going hungry for many different reasons, from losing their job to getting an unexpected bill.

Should you find yourself in this position foodbanks can provide access, not only to short-term, emergency food, but also to other forms of support.

Foodbanks are non-profit organisations that receive publicly donated food which is then sorted by volunteers and distributed as food parcels. The simple service of providing enough food for a few days can relieve stress, and prevent crime and family breakdown.

Several charitable organisations have set up food banks in Fife. If you wish to access a foodbank, please contact your Housing Officer, who can provide you with more information and make a referral for you.
