About Redcliffe Bristol
Redcliffe is a central Bristol neighbourhood with a rich history, located just south of the city centre and bordered by the Floating Harbour. The area takes its name from the red sandstone cliffs that were once a prominent feature of the landscape. The neighbourhood is characterised by a mix of residential and commercial properties, with several historic buildings including Redcliffe Methodist Church where the food bank is based.
The Redcliffe food bank outlet primarily serves the BS1 postcode area, which covers Bristol’s central districts. This central location makes our services accessible to residents from across central Bristol who may be experiencing food insecurity.
