Other charities at St John's Centre
Brecon Foodbank
Brecon Foodbank, a separate charity, is our biggest partner - they rent space here at the centre and we are able to work with them on various projects such as cooking clubs and our food co-op. They have vouchers to give to their clients to use our food co-op and so access fresh fruit and vegetables as well as the non-perishable items usually included in a Foodbank parcel. Foodbank is mainly staffed by volunteers who work hard to reduce the impact of poverty in the local area. They serve a large region including Sennybridge, Hay-on Wye, Crickhowell and more.
