    NEWQUAY FOODBANK 

    The Newquay Foodbank (NFB) supports individuals and families who find themselves in a situation where they are unable to provide the basics of food for themselves or their families. Working alongside various agencies we aim to support those who come to us and work to get them back on their feet. Working along side the Trussell Trust we aim to eradicate Food poverty where we can.
