A Father's Child Services (AFCS) are delighted to inform you that the Emergency Food Bank and Cost of Living projects are set to commence operations. Their primary focus is to provide support to individuals within and around Birmingham and Evesham (parts of Warwickshire), particularly those from BAME communities and who are most marginalised.

 

If you or any of your family members are in need of assistance from our food bank, please complete and submit a food bank referral on the AFCSCIC.ORG website - click here


Please be aware that food bank collections will be scheduled and assigned on a weekly basis until March 2024.

Collections will occur weekly. (Please bring your own bags, as they will not be supplied).

AFCS do not offer delivery services so please bear in mind that food bank services are pick-up only. 


Deliveries are only available for the most vulnerable and agreed by the A Father's Child Services management on a case by case basis.

If you are local resident in need of support, AFCS strongly encourage you to refer yourself or any family member who may benefit from the AFCS Food Bank Support.


Note: Due to the high volume of applications we receive, you may be placed on a weekly waiting list.
