About us

We believe that no one in our community should face hunger.

One hand resting on another persons in comfort

That’s why we provide four and half days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to people in Brentwood.

We are part of a nationwide community of food banks, supported by Trussell, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.

Brentwood Foodbank was established in 2011 by two partnered churches of Brentwood. Brentwood Foodbank works with a number of frontline care agencies to provide food parcels to the most vulnerable members of our community. The agencies that we work with hold vouchers that they are able to issue to their clients. The vouchers can then be redeemed at the Foodbank for a food parcel. Doddinghurst Road Community Church currently runs Brentwood Foodbank in partnership with Brentwood Baptist Church.
