Orrell Food Bank Donation Site at the Living Faith Church Post Office

Our Food Bank donation site, at the Living Faith Church Post Office, has been running since March 2020, and is open for donations ONLY every Tuesday and Thursday, 9am to 12pm.  The food you donate goes to Wigan Council's Service Delivery Footprint at the SWAN Hub, in the Clifton Street Community Centre. This covers Bryn, Winstanley, Worsley Mesnes and Orrell.  The donations are passed onto The Storehouse Project and Tom's Pantry, who provide emergency food parcels for adults and families in need.

The Food is collected on average every two to three weeks by ex-Councillor Michael Winstanley and is delivered directly to the community centre.

We thank you in anticipation of any support you can give us, especially when many families have found the current financial burden very difficult.

If you need help and support, whether it's just a listening ear or more practical help with issues around housing or helping with bills, please don't struggle alone. You will find a lot of help on Wigan Councils website, link below.
