ABOUT US

NOBODY SHOULD FACE HUNGER ALONE

In the North East, food insecurity is rising. But so is the power of the community.

At Feeding Families, we believe everyone deserves access to good food – no matter their background, income, or postcode. Based here in the North East, we work across the region to deliver fast, flexible, and compassionate food support where it’s needed most.

Whether it’s helping families through a sudden crisis, supporting people as they settle into new housing, or filling the gap during school holidays, we’re here. Because food is more than just fuel. It’s care, connection, and dignity.

Every person we support, every box we pack, every partner we work with – it all adds up to a bigger story. One of solidarity, community, and hope.

OUR VALUES

At Feeding Families, empathy is at the heart of everything we do.

We treat every family, volunteer, and partner with kindness, respect, and dignity. Guided by integrity, we uphold excellence, equality, and diversity in all areas of our work. We believe in generosity — sharing knowledge, time, and resources so that others may thrive. Above all, we know we are stronger together. By building meaningful connections across communities, we create more than food provision — we share love, hope, and the belief that no one should face hunger alone.

Empathy

At our core is empathy: seeing the world through others’ eyes, understanding their challenges, and responding with care. Kindness flows naturally from this foundation.

Integrity

We act with honesty and transparency, doing the right thing even when it’s hard. We uphold equality and diversity, and we strive for excellence in all that we do.

Respect

Every person is valued and treated with dignity – families, partners, volunteers, and colleagues alike.

Generosity

We freely share ideas, knowledge, time, and resources so that others can thrive.

Inclusiveness

Everyone belongs. Our boxes are never just food – they carry thought, love, and the message that no one is left out.

Togetherness

We believe in the power of connection. By working side by side with partners, communities, and volunteers, we build strong social connections that multiply our impact.
