One Can Trust
Since 2011, One Can Trust has operated a foodbank based in High Wycombe, serving the town and the wider area of South Buckinghamshire.
They provide weekly food parcels to those who need our help. We have seen a huge increase in requests for our support over the last few months due to the cost of living crisis. In addition to providing food for households who are struggling, we offer advice and support to help families tackle the causes of their financial difficulty.
To receive a parcel, clients need a referral from churches or the school. However, in situations where clients come directly to us and are not already working with one of our referring partners, we can issue an emergency parcel. If you would like us to make a referral on your behalf, please contact the school office in confidence.
All parcels are free, and they do not charge for food or delivery.
