Distribution centre donations

Food may be delivered to any one of our Distribution Centres during opening hours.

For larger donations (because our food bank rooms are quite small and have limited storage), please call 07542 106107 to arrange a delivery to our Dereham Warehouse.

Donation points

If you are happy to drop off small amounts of food donations, please see below for our food collection point locations or bring them to the food bank centres.

Please note: Tesco collection points are intended for food that has been purchased in–store. Any food that has been purchased in a different store and brought into the PCP store should be sealed by the donor and clearly labelled as having been purchased elsewhere.
