What’s in a food parcel?
Our food bank provides three days of nutritionally-balanced, non-perishable food.
Trussell has worked with nutritionists to ensure food parcels contain sufficient nutrition for at least three days of healthy, balanced meals for individuals and families.
A typical food parcel includes:
- Breakfast cereal
- Soup
- Pasta
- Rice
- Pasta sauce
- Tinned beans
- Tinned meat and fish
- Tinned vegetables
- Tinned fruit
- Tea or coffee
- Biscuits
- Snacks
Dietary requirements
Our food bank can usually adapt your food parcel to meet your dietary needs, for example, gluten free, halal or vegetarian. When you arrive at the food bank centre, a volunteer will chat to you about any special dietary requirements you may have.
