Give Help
Impact Days
Be part of something special; run your team-building volunteer day from our depot.
The collective efforts and hard work of your group will ensure people experiencing acute food poverty in Greenwich do not go hungry.
What to expect
Under the guidance of Josh, our Depot Lead, no more than 10 colleagues from your organisation will pack non-perishable foods and other essential items, which we then transport to our food distribution points or directly to people’s homes.
A typical volunteer day at our depot on Shooters Hill runs between 10am – 2pm.
Expect to:
- learn more about our operation and the issue of food poverty in Greenwich.
- enjoy an informal, busy day – on your feet (with breaks) and away from screens!
- leave our depot with the knowledge you have made a real difference.
So far this year, businesses across the Borough and beyond have given hundreds of hours of time to help pack emergency food parcels from our depot. All of these parcels were received by Greenwich residents in need.
“On behalf of the People & Culture team at The O2, I just wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you for accommodating us at Greenwich Foodbank.
We found the day to be a truly insightful and humbling experience. Knowing that our efforts were making a tangible difference gave real purpose to the day and left a lasting impression on us all.
The care, organisation, and compassion shown throughout our time with you did not go unnoticed, and it was a privilege to play a small part in such a vital operation.”
