Food banks

We support two local food banks: the Bristol North West Food Bank and the Community of the Sisters of the Church.

We accept food bank donations all year round, so if you have items to give, please add them to the food bank collection boxes outside the parish office at Holy Trinity Church. The donations are distributed to the charities regularly, mostly weekly.
