Cornerstone Benwell
Encouraging Togetherness, Empowering Our Local Community, Including All.
Supporting Dignity
Empowering Choices
Benwell Bridge is more than just a food service — it’s a welcoming, respectful space offering people in financial hardship the chance to access good-quality food and essential household items at an affordable price.
Our aim is to move beyond standard food parcels and give individuals and families the freedom to choose the food that works best for them.

Providing Essential Support
Fighting Hunger Together
For just £3, customers can choose 10 items from a selection that includes cupboard staples, fresh fruit and vegetables, frozen ready meals, meats, toiletries, and hygiene products. We prioritise nutritional value and variety, ensuring that even on a limited budget, people can access the basics they need — and more.
We know that many in our community live on very tight budgets but may not qualify for regular food bank support. That’s where Benwell Bridge comes in — sitting between emergency food aid and a regular supermarket. Our pantry model helps make budgets stretch further while preserving dignity and offering real choice.
Your Help
If you, your church, or your community group would like to support Benwell Bridge, we are always grateful for donations of food and toiletries. Every item helps us provide choice, dignity, and care to those in need in our community.
Thank you for making a difference!
