Who We Are.

The Bay Foodbank is one of the largest independent foodbanks in the country and the only foodbank serving the entirety of North Tyneside.

We provide emergency parcels to those experiencing crisis in North Tyneside. A typical day will see us providing 40-45 emergency parcels, directly supporting more than 90 people.

Alongside this we support a range of school breakfast clubs and run a food waste diversion programme via which we help a significant number of people.
