Foodbank Partnerships

Foodbanks don’t get enough nappies and formula donated, so we support them with these essential items for babies and children.

Pelican Parcels wants to ensure no family feels they need to water down formula for their baby to try and make it last longer; or leave their baby in a nappy that they’d rather change because the monthly cost is becoming too hard to find.

We work with four foodbanks across Brighton and Hove to help supply nappies, wipes, and formula to families struggling to afford these essential items.

Thanks to our supporters, in 2025

There are an increased number of families facing financial hardship. Welfare reform, the insecurity and high cost of housing along with mental and physical health issues have impacted on the ability of families to cope with day-to-day costs.
