The town’s Foodbank is a project involving Wickford Churches working together, and opens weekly at Wickford Salvation Army in Jersey Gardens, Wickford SS11 7AE.

The Foodbank has been set up to serve the people of Wickford - in particular postcode districts SS11 and SS12.

Donations for the Foodbank may be dropped off in the car park at the back of The Salvation Army off Elm Road on Wednesdays between 2:00pm - 3:15pm. Or at our partner Church, The Christian Centre, Crouch Drive, Wickford SS11 8AQ.

Kindly note that food put into the Community Basket in the Wickford branch of Aldi is not given to our Wickford Town Foodbank but is taken out of the area.

We thank local businesses, shops, schools, and residents for all their support.
