Ventnor Community Foodbank are on the move.
From Tuesday 16th May the Foodbank will open at Ventnor Central (Formerly Ventnor Youth and Community Centre) in Victoria Street.
The building is already home to Baby Box Isle of Wight and Ventnor Community Pantry.
No referral needed
Ventnor Community Foodbank will be open as usual on Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 10am to 12 noon.
We still do not require a voucher or referral.
If you need our help please just turn up, ring 07862 247694 or message us on Facebook.
Managed by volunteers
Ventnor Community Foodbank is run and managed by its volunteers and has been running as an independent foodbank since July 2020.
Between July 2020 and December 2022 we have fed 2,369 people – 1,448 adults and 921 children.
This has all been possible as a result of the work of our dedicated volunteers, the incredible support and generosity of so many people and organisations in the local Ventnor community.
Thanks to our kind and generous landlords
We would like to pay particular thanks to our kind and generous landlords at Ventnor Baptist Church for their support over many years.
Sharing a location will enable the Foodbank to work more closely with Ventnor Community Pantry and Baby Box Isle of Wight.
