If you are in a crisis and need emergency food, you can get a foodbank voucher from a JobCentre or Children’s centre, or other care professional, such as a doctor, health visitor, social worker, the police or a Citizens Advice Bureaux worker.
In general, foodbank vouchers can be exchanged for three days emergency food at a food bank. Please remember that you must have a foodbank voucher before going to the foodbank.
You have to make an appointment to visit most foodbanks ..
