and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5: 16

RIBBLE VALLEY FOOD BANK
“We would have struggled, fed our families first, and would not have known where to go without the foodbank.”
We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
CAP
CAP (Christians Against Poverty) are on a mission to release thousands of families from grinding poverty through award winning debt counselling and community groups. By equipping and empowering local churches to reach out on their doorsteps, we’re bringing hope to tens of thousands of people every year.
