Provide Devon

Provide Devon is a Christian charity providing food to people in poverty within Plymouth and the surrounding area.  Using a combination of fresh produce and donated surplus food from retailers, a requested food parcel can usually be provided to our referral agents within 24 hours. Our aim is to give individuals immediate relief from food insecurity while they explore longer term support through appropriate channels.

We only work directly with referral agents, offering anonymity to families and individuals in need of food. We offer a rapid response as the people we feed will often have been experiencing food insecurity for some time. 

Requests can be made due to financial poverty, mental health matters, bereavement or a sudden change in circumstances. 

Our crisis food packages typically includes milk, butter, eggs, cheese, bread, fruit, vegetables and long life items such as rice, soup and cereals. When possible we will also add a selection of donated toiletries too.
