UPDATE – Presteigne Outreach Service

The Foodbank Outreach Service in Presteigne Youth Centre, finished as of Monday 18th December 2023.

We are very grateful to the Youth Centre for giving us the opportunity to have a ‘Pop-up’ foodbank on a Monday morning over the last six months, but we really do need more storage space than our cupboard and sole access for receiving donations, or making up emergency parcels.

We are fully committed to providing a service to East Radnor and as of January 2024 we will deliver crisis food, toiletries and baby basics, to the community of Presteigne and surrounding villages, on a Tuesday or Friday, from our Knighton foodbank base.

For more information contact Helen on 07731 524 058.
