Spotlight on The Storehouse
Changing one life at a time
The Storehouse provides emergency food hampers for individuals and families in need across the city of Sheffield.
“You don’t just provide the food, but are always so loving, accommodating and helpful. Whatever I ask is never too much trouble. You never tire of helping it always lifts my day to speak to one of you. I am so grateful to The Storehouse.”
Dot Smith - Midwife for Asylum Seekers and Homeless
We receive referrals from a number of agencies including Social Services, NHS, tenancy support workers, schools and the South Yorkshire Police.
Contributions of food and finance are provided by supermarkets, the Megacentre and the community. The Storehouse literally provides people with their next meal. Our clients are in desperate situations and often receiving a food hamper gives them the strength and hope to make it through another day.
