December food parcels decreased

4th January 2025

FIGURES FOR THE NUMBER OF FOOD PARCELS PROVIDED BY SLOUGH FOODBANK DURING 1 – 31 DECEMBER 2024, COMPARED WITH THE SAME PERIOD IN DECEMBER 2023

Total number of food parcels: 994, a 17% decrease
Number of adults: 634, a 13% decrease
Number of children: 360, a 20% decrease

The total number of parcels provided during December is 17% fewer when compared to December last year.  However, it’s still 994 food parcels too many, with people in Slough and the surrounding community continuing to face hunger and hardship. In addition to the standard food parcel, during December, we provided 228 Christmas Hampers to households to help bring a little joy to people struggling in food poverty crisis over Christmas.
