What’s in a food parcel?

- Rice
- Pasta sauce

- Tinned meat
- Tinned vegetables
- Tinned fruit
- Tea & coffee
- Biscuits

Dietary requirements
Our foodbank can usually adapt your food parcel to meet your dietary needs, for example, gluten free, halal or vegetarian. When you discuss your emergency food voucher with a referral agent, please let them know about any special dietary requirements you may have. You can also discuss them with us directly if you prefer.
Please note though, our boxes are pre-packed, so you will usually need to travel to the Barmouth distribution centre to collect a special dietary food parcel.
