More Than Food
We offer help beyond a food parcel. Find out more about additional services and support.
Our foodbank hosts a Community Hub. This means that we are providing additional support alongside emergency food, to help people address the underlying issues behind their crisis.

Local Change helps connect people in the Wealden District of East Sussex, supporting people to talk together about the issues, and find the solutions they want to move forward with. The solutions could be local campaigns or community projects, or better ways to find out what everyone thinks in the local area. Have a look around the Local change website and see what local campaigns and projects you might like to get involved with. http://www.localchange.uk
