You can bring your donation to St Donat's when we're open for services or we can collect from you.
We provide emergency food supplies to last three days.To become a Foodbank Client and receive food, a person needs to have a Foodbank voucher. These used to be on paper but now are an E-voucher which can be online or a series of numbers. Clients need to bring the E-voucher to us to exchange for food.
Who can get a voucher? If you are in need of emergency supply of food then we will want to help you.
Where can I get a voucher from? We don't give out vouchers from the Foodbank, rather you will need to speak to someone at certain organisations. The reason for this is that the organisation is best placed to help you get back on your feet and provide on-going support to get you out of the emergency. In our area the organisations are:

It is 22 years since Shalom first opened to support the village community. We sell good quality second hand children's & ladies' clothes and small items. This provides an opportunity to recycle items rather than throw out and the money raised goes to support local good causes. We are also a focal point in Abercynon for folk to come and meet up and we provide volunteering experiences.

You no longer need to book with us in order to reserve a seat in church - we only followed this protocol during the Christmas services. St Gwynno's church continues to be closed as it remains too small to comply with social distancing. However we will be continuing to use the garden there for church activities like a prayer trail and open air services when they can resume.
