Council’s foodbank appeal to residents
Caerphilly County Borough Council is appealing for residents to support their local foodbank.

Foodbanks provide emergency food and support to families and individuals who find themselves in financial crisis.  They rely heavily upon donations and have seen demand for their support increase because of the pandemic.

The Council is asking residents to buy an extra item of non-perishable food during their usual shop and place it at one of the county borough’s donation points. 

Donations can be taken to:
  • Rhymney Integrated Health Centre
  • Tesco, Ystrad Mynach
  • Morrisons, Bargoed
  • St Peter’s Church, Aberbargoed (Wednesdays 12:30pm-2:30pm)
  • Tesco Extra, Risca
  • Morrisons, Rogerstone
  • Aldi, Risca
  • One Stop, Risca
  • Asda, Blackwood
  • Tesco, Crossways, Caerphilly
  • Oasis Christian Centre, Bryn Road, Cefn Fforest (Thursdays 10:00am-12:00pm)
  • Asda, Caerphilly
  • Connect Life Church, Crescent Road, Caerphilly (Tuesdays and Wednesdays 10:00am - 1:00pm)

For information on your local food bank call the Council’s Caerphilly Cares team on 07720 948030, email CaerphillyCares@caerphilly.gov.uk or visit www.trusselltrust.org
