The Hessle and Anlaby Food Bank was set up in 2020 initially as a response to the pandemic but it was recognised that here was a need for support beyond the lockdown.
The food bank now supports over 100 households, delivering parcels every Monday and Thursday on a weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis according to need.
If you or anyone you know is in need of essential supplies, please call the number below to register with the food bank. The line is manned by volunteers on Monday and Thursday (mornings only) to collate requests for assistance – at other times you may leave a voicemail, or you can email your request to:
Tel: 07783648214
email: info@hessleanlabyfoodbank.org
The food bank is also in need of both financial donations (preferred) and supplies.
The bank account for donations is:

Sort Code: 55-81-23

Supplies can be put into the bins we have placed in the Co-op and Heron Foods in Hessle and The Food Warehouse and Sainsbury’s Local in Anlaby. We can also arrange for a volunteer to collect donations.
