In 2018 we introduced the Barnwell Food Bank. During 2019-20 and the impact of COVID-19, we enhanced our provision to support more families in need and those with rapidly changing circumstances. This saw food parcels delivered by members of school staff and donations from our students, staff, local businesses and the wider community.

We are aware of the ever challenging financial times the nation is experiencing along with our community.

We aim to support families during the financial crisis where we can and are able to signposting or refer to services that can provide additional guidance.

Please follow the link to register for support from the school food bank. A member of our team will be in touch.
