Nourish Community Foodbank
Nourish Community Foodbank operates throughout the Tunbridge Wells borough and provides emergency food and provisions to people in crisis on a referral only basis.
Since 2018, St Dunstan’s Church has been donating to the Nourish Community Foodbank thanks to the encouragement of Margaret Furminger.
Locally, Nourish was first organised with the help of the Roman Catholic Church, St Theodores in Cranbrook.
