The Galashiels Foodbank is here to help people who are having problems with affording food in Galashiels and District. Please feel free to contact us on galashielsfoodbank@gmail.com if you are at risk of running out of food.
As well as food we are sometimes asked for toiletries. Donations of shampoo, shower gel, deodorants are welcome and can be left inside the porch of St Peter’s Church in Abbotsford Road, Galashiels. Alternatively they can be left in the collection points at the tills in Asda, Poundland, and M&S.
The Foodbank is working together with SBC and the Focus Centre to support a new Low and Slow cooking course for clients who want to learn how to cook using a slow cooker (provided free of charge). The first course will end in August. A second is planned for September/October. If you are interested please email us on galashielsfoodbank@gmail.com.
