Did you know? 👀
Our Key to Life Foodbank and Key Community Bus are here for South Tyneside - but in different ways!?
💛 Key to Life Foodbank is a lifeline for local people and families in crisis, providing emergency food support and practical help when it's needed most.
🚌 Key Community Bus brings affordable food right to your neighbourhood, helping everyone save money, reduce food waste and feel part of a welcoming community. Whether you’re after great-value shopping, friendly advice, or just a chat, you’re always welcome aboard - whatever your circumstances.
Both services share the same commitment to supporting our community but each meets different needs. That's why we're making it easier for you to find the right support for you:
From now on, each page will focus on its own service, making it easier to find the information most relevant to you.
💛 Follow Key to Life Foodbank if you’re at crisis point and need emergency food support, ways to donate, or to get involved as a volunteer.
🚌 Follow Key Community Bus if you’re looking for affordable food, community connection, advice and support, or to be part of reducing food waste - open to all no matter your circumstances.
🏡 And don't forget to follow Key to keep up to date with everything happening across all our services, including our work preventing youth homelessness.
Thank you for being part of our community and for helping us build a stronger, fairer South Tyneside. Together, we can make a difference! 💛
