SOUTH LIVERPOOL FOODBANK

South Liverpool Foodbank gives food to people in food crisis. Each client visiting one of our five Foodbank food distribution centres with a food ?voucher? is given a food parcel comprising sufficient food for 3 full days. Food parcel size is determined by the number of adults and children listed on the food voucher. The food provided is tinned or packeted and within the Best Before Date.
