What’s in a food parcel?
Our foodbank provides three days of nutritionally balanced, non-perishable tinned and dried foods that have been donated by the local community.
Trussell has worked with nutritionists to ensure food parcels contain sufficient nutrition for at least three days worth of healthy, balanced meals for individuals and families.
A typical food parcel includes:
- Breakfast cereals
- Soup
- Pasta
- Rice
- Pasta sauce
- Tinned beans
- Tinned meat
- Tinned vegetables
- Tinned fruit
- Tea or coffee
- Biscuits
- Snacks
Dietary requirements
Our foodbank can usually adapt your food parcel to meet your dietary needs, for example, gluten free, halal or vegetarian. Please tell the agency giving you the foodbank voucher about any special dietary needs that you have.
