About

“The foodbank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline.”

Chipping Barnet Foodbank is a charitable organisation that provides emergency food assistance and comprehensive support to individuals and families facing poverty in the London Borough of Barnet.

Beyond distributing food parcels, we offer a range of support services to our clients including benefits advice, debt support, housing and employment advice, a digital inclusion service, and client signposting to other local resources.

We collaborate with various community partners and engage in advocacy efforts to address the root causes of food insecurity. Our approach is holistic, aiming to provide immediate relief while also contributing to long-term solutions for poverty in the local community.

We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, in collaboration with Trussell, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
