Please note that our services are provided on a referral-only basis for those who are in extreme financial crisis and have no other way of accessing food.
It is the Referral Agent’s responsibility to assess their client’s situation, and to ascertain if they are in genuine need of food.
Note: the number of referrals is limited per person per year. Please contact the office if your client has reached the limit.
Please contact the office if you are a referral agent and are experiencing difficulties logging into your online referral account.
