PACE Food Bank - Operation Agape
Under the banner of PACE Food Bank, Operation Agape is an emergency food bank service for those who find themselves in temporary need. This service links closely with PACE Advice - Enquire as clients with money issues often have additional practical needs. Food parcels are given out on a referral basis, a significant number of other charities, agencies and organisations within the area refer vulnerable families who are in need of this vital service. PACE do not respond to self-referral, unless through PACE Advice - Enquire.
The content of each parcel has been specifically compiled by a professional nutritionist and is devised to encourage a healthy diet. The value of each parcel is approximately £25 and its contents will feed a family of four for several days, helping to bridge the gap until they receive their next personal payment.
