Many UK food banks, including those in the Trussell network, ask for a voucher or referral from a local agency such as Citizens Advice, a support worker, GP surgery, school or housing officer. Independent food banks, pantries and community larders often accept people directly. Contact the food bank listed here to check what it needs.
