The food bank is open every Tuesday from 5pm - 6:30pm at The Phoenix Centre, 4 Farrington Avenue, WD23 3DG. It is open to anyone who lives in Bushey.

Even when life looks comfortable, many households are struggling to get by. For people going through hard times, a food bank can be a lifeline. It's part of our vision for our community where people can meet, connect, and help each other.

No voucher or referral is needed to receive a food parcel. Car parking is available right outside the Phoenix Centre, but please be considerate to residents parking spaces.

If you live outside of Bushey, or need support with food when we are not open, you can contact other organisations listed in this leaflet
