Every two minutes, someone in Cambridge sits down to a meal from us. 

This Christmas, can you provide the next one?

Ways to help

Your Gift, Doubled.

To launch the campaign, every pound you give will be doubled until our £15,000 match fund is used up. This is also the case for regular donations while the fund is still available. Gifts received after the fund is used up are just as vital, and will go straight to our Winter Appeal.

Donate now to double your impact. 

Every two minutes. 

We provide over 260,000 meals a year to neighbours across Cambridge. That’s one every two minutes. Even on Christmas Day, when our doors are closed, someone in our city is sitting down to a meal from us every two minutes, on average.

Nobody should need a food bank. But high housing costs, rising bills and incomes that don’t cover the essentials mean many of our neighbours can’t make ends meet this winter. With your help, we can provide not only food today but support for a brighter future tomorrow.

Support people facing hunger year-round

Hunger doesn’t stop when the decorations come down. A regular monthly gift helps us plan ahead and be there for our neighbours all year round. While our match fund lasts, every payment from a new monthly gift made before 15 January is doubled.

Resources for sharing our Winter Appeal

Two minutes of sharing can reach dozens of people. We've put together messages and images to make this as easy as possible.
