Food banks and ‘Lighthouse’ food collections
Foodbanks are non-profit making organisations that give food parcels to those in crisis who don’t have enough money to buy food themselves.
At Leyton Orient Trust we recognise the invaluable service our local foodbanks are providing to local people in our community. We are committed to supporting and raising awareness of these organisations and the vital service they are providing to vulnerable people and those individuals affected by the cost of living and health inequalities.
Please below for a list of local organisations, which often require a referral from a health professional or referral partner (school, local church etc)
We welcome the partnership with Lighthouse project at SAINT church, Leyton.
We are collecting food donations from Leyton Orient Club fans and locals on home match days.
