✨ Welcome to 2026 from everyone at Antrim Foodbank ✨

As we step into a new year, we want to take a moment to say a huge thank you to our incredible community. The generosity shown during our Christmas Appeal was truly overwhelming, and because of you, many individuals and families across Antrim received vital support during what can be a very difficult time of year.

To everyone who donated food, finances, time, or simply shared our posts – thank you. Every tin, packet, and pound made a real and meaningful difference. Your kindness reminded us once again that compassion and community spirit are very much alive here in Antrim.

We also want to give special thanks to our amazing volunteers. Through cold mornings, busy distributions, sorting donations, packing parcels, and offering a friendly face and listening ear – you are the heart of Antrim Foodbank. We simply couldn’t do this work without your commitment, care, and dedication. 💙

While Christmas has passed, the need for food support continues throughout the year. As we begin 2026, we’re sharing an updated shopping list (see image at bottom of page) showing the items we currently need most, as well as those we are fortunate to have plenty of. If you’re able to donate, focusing on the “most needed” items helps us support people more effectively.

Whether you can give regularly or occasionally, donate food or volunteer your time, every contribution matters. Together, we can continue to ensure that no one in our community has to face hunger alone.

Thank you for standing with us – here’s to a hopeful, compassionate 2026. 🌟
