About
Lewisham Foodbank provides three-day emergency food supplies to individuals experiencing crisis in the Lewisham area. Established in 2012, the food bank aims to address food poverty, noting that over one third of the Lewisham population lives below the poverty line. Individuals can receive support by obtaining a referral from organisations such as support workers, schools, housing associations, Citizens Advice, GPs, or faith organisations. For those without a support organisation, referrals can be obtained by calling Help Through Hardship, Community Connections Lewisham, or the food bank's bespoke phone line. The organisation relies on financial donations to cover its operational costs and can be supported via PayPal.
