In the charity's own words
Amble Food Bank helps members of its surrounding local communities who are struggling financially and need support via the provision of a food parcel that they receive fortnightly. All clients get referred to us through an official agency which assesses whether they are eligible for a food parcel. We also signpost clients to other agencies if they are in need of additional support.
