Welcome to Oxford Community Emergency Foodbank.

We are an independent charity that aims to help people in Oxford or the surrounding area who are suffering from financial hardship and finding it difficult to provide food for themselves, their family or dependants. We are here to help through the provision of food at our three local cafes around the city.
