Trussell Trust foodbank providing emergency food parcels to people in crisis across Chelmsford on a referral basis.
Chelmsford Foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust network and last year provided 8,769 three-day emergency food supplies to local people in crisis. It runs a voucher referral system: people in crisis are referred by a frontline professional (such as a GP, school, social worker or Citizens Advice), then exchange the voucher for a parcel at one of several distribution centres around Chelmsford. Locations and opening times are listed on the website, and all centres are closed on bank holidays.
