Supporting the Shipston Food Bank and Helping More People Stay Connected

For many people, a local Food Bank is a lifeline.

Food banks have become an essential part of many rural communities across the UK.

For people facing financial difficulties, they provide practical support during challenging times, helping individuals and families access the essentials they need with rising household costs.

While every food bank operates differently, they all share a common goal: ensuring nobody is left without support when they need it most.

Here in Shipston-on-Stour, that role is carried out by Shipston Food Bank. Based at St Edmund's Church and supported by volunteers from across the local community, the organisation provides assistance to residents in need.

Supporting The Food Bank's Work

To help support the Food Bank's ongoing work, Voneus has committed to donating £50 for every broadband sale made in Shipston-on-Stour, using code GNP-MXT. The initiative aims to provide direct support to the charity while helping raise awareness of the important role it plays within the local community.

Community organisations often rely on fundraising events, grants and donations to continue their work, and with many local charities facing growing demand and significant operating costs, every contribution can make a difference.

Use code: GNP-MXT during checkout to support Shipston Food Bank - earn a £50 voucher reward for you & £50 for the Food Bank.

Beyond Food

Food insecurity isn't the only challenge facing many households today.

Access to the internet has become an essential part of everyday life, whether that's applying for jobs, accessing public services, managing finances, supporting children's education or simply staying in touch with family and friends.

For households feeling the pressure of rising living costs, staying connected can sometimes become another difficult expense to manage. That's why Voneus offers a discounted social tariff for eligible households, helping make reliable broadband more affordable.

While broadband cannot solve financial hardship, it can help people access the services, support and opportunities that are increasingly found online.
