☀️ Hot weather can bring hidden challenges

14th July 2026

While many people think winter is the hardest time for those struggling financially, summer heatwaves can also make life more difficult.

Staying hydrated, keeping food fresh, and finding easy, affordable meals all become harder when you’re already trying to make ends meet.

If you’re finding things tough, please remember you’re not alone. Our foodbank is here to provide practical support in a welcoming and non-judgemental environment.

💧 Stay hydrated with tap water where possible.
🥗 Choose simple, no-fuss meals that don’t heat up your home.
❄️ Keep chilled food refrigerated and check use-by dates in hot weather.
❤️ Check in on elderly neighbours, friends and relatives during periods of extreme heat.

If you’re able to help, your donations enable us to continue supporting local people throughout the summer. Every item and every pound makes a difference.

Together, we can help ensure no one in our community is left to face the challenges of a heatwave alone.
