Taste and See
Taste and See is a gift scheme which enables you to buy fresh food or frozen items from participating local shops.
Simply present your Taste and See gift card with your shopping at participating shops to purchase as normal. This will enable you to top-up the non-perishable food which you have received in your Foodbank package.
Whatever you need most – bread, milk, fruit and veg, meat and eggs, frozen and fresh, or herbs and spices…
…it’s your choice!
You can use the gift cards to purchase any food items you like, but they will not be accepted for non-food items, alcohol or energy drinks.
Barcode/E-Voucher Gift Cards:
If you have received one of our pilot scheme digital or printed barcode gift cards, please present these at the till at your nominated shop (Aldi, Sainsbury’s, Farmfoods). The cards can only be spent on food and soft drinks.
