As the coronavirus pandemic unfolds in the UK, our main priority is ensuring the safety of everyone who comes to our food bank – whether it’s someone needing help, someone volunteering their time, or someone making a donation.

We know there are vulnerable clients who need our help and we are working hard to establish alternative arrangements that will enable us to reach them whilst working within government guidelines and ensuring everyone’s safety.

Things are changing quickly, so we’ll keep this page updated regularly with information about what’s happening at Ormskirk Foodbank and how people can access support and help us be there for people in crisis.

We’re still supporting people with emergency food at Ormskirk Foodbank, albeit a more streamlined service, and will do so for as long as is possible. If anything changes, we’ll let you know immediately.

You can find out more about the Trussell Trust network’s response to coronavirus here [link: www.trusselltrust.org/coronavirus-food-banks] and you can follow us on Twitter @OrmskirkFB or on Facebook @OrmskirkFoodB to stay up to date.
