New trustee vacancies!

Are you interested in joining our Board?

West Cheshire Foodbank was established in 2012 to provide emergency food to people in crisis. We are part of the Trussell network of foodbanks and last financial year we provided food to 14,500 people in the 12 months to March 2025. We can only do this with the commitment of our volunteers, our small, dedicated staff team and the much-valued support of local businesses, organisations and individuals.

We are now looking for two new trustees, with relevant experience, who share our vision

for a future without the need for foodbanks. You do not need previous experience as a trustee to apply for these roles.

Trustee vacancies:

Participation Trustee (new role to ensure that the experiences of those who have lived experience of food insecurity and/or financial hardship shapes all areas of our work)

Governance Trustee
