About the Trussell Trust Food Bank Network
The Trussell Trust supports communities and churches to open food banks across the UK.
Keynsham Foodbank is part of The Trussell Trust’s network of 428 food banks, working to tackle food poverty and hunger in our local communities, across the UK.
The Food Bank Network was founded in 2004 after four years of developing the original food bank based in Salisbury. Since then The Trussell Trust has helped communities work together to launch food banks nationwide across the UK.
In 2023/24, food banks in the Trussell Trust’s network provided 3,121,404 three-day emergency food supplies and support to UK people in crisis. Of these, 1,144,096 were distributed for children.
As a network, we want to see more people helped out of crisis and fewer people needing food banks in the future. That’s why The Trussell Trust and local food banks are working together to develop new ways to help people out of crisis.
