Emergency food
In light of the coronavirus (COVID-19), Leeds City Council are putting additional support in place to ensure everyone is able to access the food they need. Find out more about the number of options available.
Emergency food provision through the Local Welfare Support Scheme
There is now additional food support available for families and individuals who are experiencing difficulties in accessing food due to financial difficulties or self-isolation. Personal circumstances will determine the type of help that can be received.
Referrals can be made through local key workers, council services or by calling 0113 376 0330.
Leeds Food Aid Network and We Care Leeds
The Leeds Food Aid Network are working in partnership with We Care Leeds, to deliver food boxes across Leeds.
If people need assistance, we encourage them to try the Local Welfare Support Scheme first, but if that can't be arranged, please email a referral.
For details of how to refer to this scheme and for up to date information on emergency food provision in Leeds please visit Leeds Food Aid Network
