Who We Are

Fatima Food Bank is a community-driven initiative dedicated to tackling food insecurity and hardship with compassion and dignity. Since 2019, we have provided essential food and support to struggling families in Ilford and beyond, ensuring that no one in our community is left without the basics.

Our Mission

We believe that food is more than just nourishment—it’s dignity, hope, and stability. Our mission is to support families facing hardship, help them regain independence, and ensure that no one has to choose between food and other essentials.

What We Do

Every week, we provide:
✔ Food packs for families
✔ Support for vulnerable groups, including young mothers and students.
✔ Job and training opportunities, helping people move towards self-sufficiency.
✔ Partnerships with charities and councils to identify and assist those most in need.

Our Impact

📌 Empowered a struggling mother by offering her a job as a cook, helping her transition from receiving aid to earning a wage.
📌 Partnered with YouthBuild to provide food support for young people in deprived areas.
📌 Recognised by major organisations, including Islam Channel and Islamic Relief, for our vital work in the community.
