In order to safeguard clients and our volunteers we are seeking to reduce face to face contact by adopting an e referral system and by having food parcels delivered to clients rather than having them collect food from our Distribution Centres. Delivery will be managed by the Food Bank Distribution Centres and the Delivery Organisations shown below.


Changes to Referral Process and Deliveries of Food

  • Clients will be referred to Ringwood Food Bank by email using an e form with the usual client details.

  • Delivery: Once a referral form has been received and processed by the Distribution Centre a delivery will be arranged and the client advised when the delivery can be expected. The delivery will be made using a safe delivery process ensuring that our medically vulnerable clients are protected. 

Our Focus:
We remain focussed on helping those who cannot afford to buy food. We do not have the stock or the capacity to also support those who have the financial means, but have difficulty undertaking food shopping due to self isolation or other reasons. Local Authorities are charged with delivering local support services. 
 

The Ringwood Foodbank Distribution Centre is open on

11:30 — 1:30
