About our food bank

Our food bank is a project founded by Ebenezer Church and Filton Community Church, working together towards stopping hunger in our local area.

It grew further since the launch in August 2012 to have five food bank outlets across North Bristol and South Gloucestershire. In September 2019 Yate and Chipping Sodbury Foodbank merged with North Bristol Foodbank. We adopted their three outlets, improving the food bank coverage over North Bristol and South Gloucestershire. In the following year we then opened a new outlet in Stokes Croft, taking our total number of outlets to nine.

Finally, in 2024 we launched The Bridge Food Project, a food club offering wraparound support to help people transition into independence.

Meet the team

North Bristol & South Glos Foodbank is run by a dedicated team of staff, trustees and volunteers.

You will often see them working in our central food bank office, around the different food bank centres, and behind the scenes keeping everything going. We are so grateful for all their time and commitment.

As part of our Financial Inclusion work with Trussell, we also have members of our team from Citizen’s Advice that partner with our clients.
