Foodbank issue another urgent appeal

items needed:

Further to the plea for food donations published on Monday, here’s another urgent appeal from Isle of Wight Foodbank. Ed


We have completely run out of tinned vegetables such as carrots, peas, sweetcorn and tomatoes. We are very low on pasta sauce and long life milk.

This has never happened before.

The past eight weeks have been incredibly busy for us, with demand for food from Islanders in sudden crisis, finding themselves without food rising by the week.

Our warehouse is open in Cowes, tomorrow morning from 10am to 1pm.

You can find us at Somerton Business Park, Newport Rd, Cowes, PO30 4PD.

Next week we are open for donations Wednesday and Friday mornings. Alternatively, our permanent food donation points are listed on our Website including all Spar stores.
