Food bank in King's Lynn

Almost two years ago now, I completed a range of resources on food for the GA website, funded by the TDA and the TLA.
One of the activities was based around the food banks that were beginning to appear in some cities to support vulnerable families and provide support, often co-ordinated by the TRUSSELL TRUST
I read in my local paper this week that a food bank is opening in King's Lynn, where I used to teach.

Is there a food bank near you ?

13 million people live below the poverty line in the UK.
Every day people in the UK go hungry for reasons ranging from redundancy to receiving an unexpected bill on a low income. Trussell Trust foodbanks provide a minimum of three days emergency food and support to people experiencing crisis in the UK. Last year our UK foodbank network fed over 60,000 people experiencing food poverty.
We partner with churches and communities to open new foodbanks nationwide. With over 100 foodbanks currently launched, our goal is for every town to have one.
