Hackney Foodbank

The Hackney foodbank provides emergency food to Hackney residents in crisis. All food given out is donated by the local community.
In the current economic climate the need for emergency food is at its greatest and the foodbank went through twice its normal stock in May and is now running desperately low on supplies.
