More Than Food

We offer help beyond a food parcel. Find out more about additional services and support.

At Lisburn Foodbank we know that hunger in our area is about so much more than food, but a lack of income and a host of issues. This means that we are providing additional support alongside emergency food, to help people address the underlying issues behind their crisis.

Our foodbank has specifically trained staff and volunteers who can offer you additional help in the following areas:

  • Holiday Clubs – supporting families at times when free school meals are not available by offering food and fun activities.
  • Community Money Advice – our Financial Inclusion project through which we can offer group or 1-2-1 budgeting support, benefit checks, income maximisation and debt support/signposting.
  • We have adopted WRAP® (Wellness Recovery Action Plan) as our key method of supporting individuals to maintain positive mental health. WRAP® is a personalised wellness and recovery system born out of and rooted in the principle of self determination.

For more information about any of these projects please contact us.
