Support Wrexham Foodbank This Lent

Take Part in the Lent Calendar

This Lent, we’re inviting the Wrexham community to take part in our Lent Calendar Challenge – a simple but powerful way to make a difference. The idea is simple: donate one food item for each of the 40 days of Lent.

The food bank is calling on the local Wrexham community to donate food, if they can, to ensure that they can continue to support everyone who needs their help. By the end of Lent, your donations will help ensure we can continue supporting local people in need. You can drop off your collected food donations at our food bank location throughout Lent. Please check our opening times and see if there are specific items we’re running low on before you visit.
