The need has never
been greater

Right now, food banks across the UK are struggling to keep up with demand. More people than ever are turning to them for support, but they often receive too much of the wrong thing, and not enough of what's urgently needed.

Without help, food banks can run out of essentials, leaving families without support when they need it most. When you fundraise with Bankuet, you help food banks get the essentials they actually ask for, so nothing goes to waste, and help arrives quickly.
