Bringing food relief closer to home with our Mobile Foodbank

Our Mobile Foodbank has a wide range of low-cost products including staples like sauce bases, pasta, rice, canned meals and assorted frozen items. We also offer free fruit and vegetables.  

Last year our Mobile Foodbank delivered more than 617,000 meals across 52 locations around Western Australia. We helped families stretch their budgets and stay healthy by providing more than 1.4 million kilos of free fruit and veg through our regional branches and Mobile Foodbank.

To shop at a Mobile Foodbank, customers need a referral from one of our charity partners. If you or someone you know needs a referral, you can free-call the Emergency Relief and Food Access Service on 1800 979 777, visit WA Connect or use our Find Food tool on our website.

Beverley’s story

Beverley, a mum of three, knows what it feels like when money is tight and groceries are hard to afford. Each week she cycles to our Mobile Foodbank in Rockingham to purchase essential groceries for her family. With a four-year-old daughter and two boys aged six and eight, Beverley is determined to give her children healthy food that keeps them going.

“It’s not always easy,” Beverley says. “The Mobile Foodbank just allows me to feed my family the nutritious meals they deserve.”

When we asked what she would say to someone feeling nervous about accessing food relief, she shared, “If you’re experiencing financial stress and finding it hard to meet everyday needs, come to Foodbank. The Mobile Foodbank is a welcoming and supportive community. No question is too hard to ask.”

Her courage and honesty show why our Mobile Foodbank is such a vital service. Not everyone can make it to our branches, but we do not believe that means they should go without.
