Fylde Foodbank

Glasdon gives aid to help local people in crisis.

Fylde Foodbank is a Lancashire-based food bank that provides food for those in crisis. Their belief: nobody in the community should have to face going hungry. This is why Fylde Foodbank provides three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people in crisis.

The food bank opened its doors in September 2014 after receiving charitable status earlier that same year. It was developed under the auspices of Churches Together in Kirkham and District and is part of the national Foodbank network seeded by Trussell. The network consists of 428 food banks working together to tackle food poverty and hunger in local communities and across the UK.

Fylde Foodbank operates out of three centres on different days of the week. Through the great generosity of the people in the Fylde area, the food bank continues to provide help for those in need.

As a food bank and charitable organisation, Fylde Foodbank relies on supporters for financial donations to help those in crisis in local communities.

The DJ Sidebottom/Glasdon Charitable Programme provides support for charities and community projects with donations, grants and fundraising initiatives. All activities are funded by Glasdon Group Limited, with the full support of our Founder and Chairman, Donald J Sidebottom MBE, FCIHT and the Board of Directors.
