Annual Impact Report -2025

For close to 40 years, the London Food Bank has been helping our community share its food resources — neighbours helping neighbours through times of challenge, uncertainty, and hope.

In 2025, that spirit of compassion and generosity continued to shine brightly. Together with donors, volunteers, community partners, businesses, and supporters across our city, we worked to ensure that thousands of individuals and families had access to food and support when they needed it most.

This report is a reflection of that shared effort. Behind every number is a person, a family, a volunteer, a donor, or a caring act that helped strengthen our community. We remain deeply grateful for the trust and support that make this work possible, and hopeful in the knowledge that London continues to be a community that shows up for one another.
