Help with food and essentials

If you are a Herefordshire resident needing emergency support you may be eligible for help through our local welfare provision scheme.

Or, if you are struggling to pay for food  you can apply for financial support through the Household Support Fund.

Support from your local food bank

Your local food bank may be able to support with food and essentials. There is a food bank or community larder in each of the county’s market towns and city.
You may need to be referred by a qualifying organisation or have a voucher to access the service, but if you contact your nearest food bank directly, they’ll be able to advise on the process. 

Find your local food bank 

Age UK Wyvern can provide food vouchers to people of pension age (66 or over) who are struggling with the cost of food.  Age UK Wyvern accept self-referrals and referrals from agencies.

They can also provide information and support.
