EUSTON FOODBANK

Euston Foodbank is a food bank operating under the Trussell Trust umbrella, where volunteers redistribute donated food to people in need in our community around the Euston mainline station in the London borough of Camden. Emergency food packages are provided to people for vouchers or letters from the agency supporting them, such as citizens advice, support workers, job centre, social services.
