The Foodbank

In partnership with The Felix Project — delivering good food and good company every Thursday.

"A friendly face, a cup of tea and a place to belong."

How it started

The BDHC Foodbank is run in partnership with The Felix Project, providing weekly food collections every Thursday. Our members help unload deliveries, sort fresh and dry goods, and ensure everyone leaves with healthy, balanced meals — followed by a friendly coffee morning where neighbours can connect and support one another.
