Activities

'It carries out activities or services itself'

'the prevention or relief of poverty'

The Peeblesshire Foodbank provides three days worth of nutritionally balanced food to people in crisis. We also work upstream trying to prevent people using the foodbank by providing financial inclusion advice and a number of other projects including breakfast clubs in schools, Summer holiday lunch schemes for vulnerable children, community cafes offering free refreshments and advice and much more.

Beneficiaries: 'No specific group, or for the benefit of the community'

Objectives: 4 The organisation is established for charitable purposes only and, in particular, the prevention and relief of poverty. This will be achieved by: 4.1 The provision of emergency food parcels to those in immediate and extreme need. 4.2 The provision of emotional and spiritual support to those in need. 4.3 Signposting those in need to external agencies as and when appropriate.
