There are no definite statistics for how many people use food banks, however, since the 2008 financial crisis and the government's subsequent austerity policies, food banks have gone from being virtually unknown to commonplace in the UK. The Trussell Trust – the UK’s leading food bank network – claim that 1 in 5 people in the UK live below the poverty line, and have to rely on food banks in some way; they’ve gone from serving 913,138 meals in 2013 to 1,322,952 in 2018.
Unfortunately, the use of food banks is on the rise. With the ever-growing demand, it’s more important than ever to donate. This is a list of all registered food banks in Nottinghamshire, in order of postcode and with all relevant details, so you can easily find your local food bank and donate.
