Each month Warwick District Foodbank updates its 'most needed parcel items' to give residents an idea of what is needed.

The foodbank, which has a site at the Kenilworth Centre, also gives a list of items that it has plenty of.

Food parcels provide three days of nutritionally balanced, non-perishable food for individuals or families.

In Kenilworth, item donations can be made by the checkouts at Waitrose and at Sainsbury's seven days a week.

In November last year it was revealed by operators The Trussell Trust that up to 34 per cent of food parcels in the district were given to young people.

A statement on its website says: "Over 90 per cent of the food distributed by foodbanks in The Trussell Trust network is donated by the public – that's why your food donations are absolutely vital to our ability to give everyone referred to us a balanced and nutritious three day supply of food."

This month Warwick District Foodbank is looking for donations of:

- Tinned vegetables

- Small jars of coffee

- Tinned custard

- Sponge pudding

This month Warwick District Foodbank already has plenty of:

- Pasta

- Feminine hygiene products

- Tinned tomatoes

The foodbank cannot accept fresh food or infant formula milk.
