Donate Items
Without your generous donations our Foodbank, Pantry and Homebank could not help so many people.
Donate Food
Our Foodbank and Pantry rely on donations from the local community. We can't do this without you!
This month's most needed items are shown but we are always grateful for any items you are able to donate to Food@CHAT. If you would like a shopping list of the range of items we give out you can download one here.
For our most up to date real time needs download the free BanktheFood app. It will give your phone a helpful ping when you arrive at one of our local drop off points.
Please note that we are also unable to give out any items containing alcohol or homemade food. Please ensure that all donations are in date and unopened or it costs us to dispose of them.
Thank you for your understanding and support!
If you are a food supplier or retailer interested in donating surplus food please contact us here
Harvest Time
Harvest is an opportunity to celebrate what we have and share what we can with others in our community.
CHAT is committed to bringing hope across Mid Devon, and we'd love to tell you more about the difference we're making together. We'd be delighted to arrange a visit to your church, school or community group.
This Harvest, could you organise a food collection for CHAT? Download our Harvest Challenge sheet here or use the list above for our latest needs.
If you would like any more information, please contact the office on 0800 059 0104 or email theoffice@chatmid.co.uk.
