Wokingham Foodbank

Wokingham Foodbank provides emergency food and practical support to people in their hardest moments. We also work with partners and local communities to ensure everyone gets the right help long before they need a foodbank.

Fuel Voucher Support

In 2025, we spent over £32,000 funding fuel vouchers for Wokingham residents! 

 

The cost of living has risen faster than wages. 

Gas prices are up 67% in just five years.

Electricity bills have jumped 51%.

Food prices are up 37%.

 

A small monetary donation can help us fund fuel vouchers to someone forced to choose between heating and eating.
