Supporting Truro Food Bank

This year, we are proud to support the work of Truro Food Bank by collecting donations as part of the event. Unfortunately, food insecurity continues to affect many families and individuals in Cornwall, and the demand for support with food has been steadily increasing, while donations are decreasing. Truro Food Bank plays a vital role in providing essential support to those in need, ensuring that no one in our community goes hungry.

Simon Fann, Truro Food Bank Manager shared, "We are grateful to Transformation Cornwall for their ongoing efforts in tackling food insecurity across the Duchy and for choosing to support Truro Food Bank as part of this year's Meet the Funders Spring Event. Unfortunately, public donations of food have dropped significantly whilst demand has not and we are currently providing 7,500 meals per month. Any donations will greatly help us continue our mission to help people in food crisis and provide for those most in need in the Truro area."
