The Bridge Food Project

Supporting your journey from food insecurity to financial independence.

What we do

The Bridge Food Project is a specialist programme from North Bristol & South Glos Foodbank. We offer sustained support to people who are struggling with food costs but are ready to work towards financial independence. While our main food bank provides emergency help, The Bridge acts as a stepping stone—helping you move from needing free food to being able to manage a regular supermarket shop.

Join a Free Trial Session

Curious how The Bridge supports your journey to financial independence? Attend our monthly trial session at 2pm to meet our team, explore the programme, and discuss next steps. Limited slots available.
