Our Partners
At Newquay Foodbank, we know that tackling food poverty requires more than just handing out food parcels.
That’s why we work closely with a network of partner organisations, each bringing their expertise, resources, and care to support the whole person.
From practical assistance to guidance and advocacy, our partners help us address the many challenges people face.
By working together, we can tackle food and income insecurity more effectively and create lasting positive change across Newquay.
