Leeds S&E FB is part of a national charity called the Trussell Trust. We follow the guidelines and legislation of the TT however, we have our own charity number and all our activities - ie fundraising, social media, volunteer recruitment etc is done under our steam.

We give out emergency food parcels to clients in crisis. These might be individuals or families and most live in the S&E of the city. We also have a signposting and advice service delivered by our volunteers that runs alongside the emergency food giving, this provides our clients with well rounded support.

We have 3 paid part time members of staff and 120 -150 volunteers. We manage 11 foodbank distribution centres across the South and East of the city and volunteers are split between the centres, the head office and warehouse, fundraising support and public food and food collections including inside supermarkets and outside sports-grounds.
