We are supporting the work of Seacroft Parish which has an outlet for Leeds (East) Foodbank based in St Richard’s Crypt. 

​

Every week they provide food to ensure increasing numbers of people impacted by the cold weather and cost-of-living crisis can have something to eat. Tinned food, noodles, long-life milk, soups, cereals...basically things that you can eat using minimal energy to heat up (see detailed list below).

​

​

General supplies are low, especially potatoes (tinned, dried, fresh), long-life milk, all types of tinned food, pot noodles, etc., that don't need much cooking.

​

 

Donations can be left at: 

• St Philip's Church Building

• Our local shop, Scholes Super Store on Station Road. The third aisle has lots of items that would be ideal, and there is a box in the shop you can leave your purchase in!

​

What can we give?

Simple foods, easy to cook or heat. Putting the oven on costs money, if it can be warmed by pouring boiling water over or quickly in a pan that is good!
