NBIL FOOD BANK
​​​​
Filling the gap foodbank is a
delivery service created in March
2020 in response to the Worldwide
pandemic. Through the years we
have identified a need amongst
those who are disabled and
or vulnerable who can not access
a walk in
foodbank.
To access our foodbank a
professional referral is required.
Deliveries are made across
Liverpool every
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
SUPPORT OUR WORK​​​
​
As a small grassroots community
group our time is spent out in the community helping those who
need it. When we do get round to
applying for funding we tend to
lose out to the bigger
organisations with the well
known names. Our groups see
a high number of participants
but we struggle to get funding.
What we don't fall short of is...
great community spirit and practical support.
