Mission
Welcome to Momma Claire Bears Food bank
In 2025, more than 2.8 million people across the UK found themselves turning to a foodbank for help. Here in the West Midlands, we are one of those lifelines — standing beside families when life becomes overwhelming.
Our mission goes far beyond providing essentials. We aim to be a shoulder to lean on in the darkest moments, a warm and steady presence when you need food, clothing, toiletries… or simply someone to listen. No one should face hardship alone, and we’re here to make sure you don’t.
WE SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY WITH FOOD PARCELS IN THEIR TIME OF NEED
About us
Dedicated to
helping the community
So many families across the UK are carrying burdens no one sees, facing moments when even the simplest things feel out of reach. In those lowest, most overwhelming times, we aim to be the helping hand you can rely on.
Whether you need a food parcel to get you through the week, a little support to make a birthday feel special, or school clothes to help your children feel confident — we’re here, and we’re ready to help.
THIS YEAR WE HAVE SUPPORTED 1000 FAMILIES IN THE WEST MIDLANDS
Take a look at the work we do
We're so proud of the work we do in the community,
take a look at how your donations can make a change.
Easter Egg
Appeal
Every year we have an amazing
donation of easter eggs to the foodbank. We then distribute them to families in need.
Christmas toy appeal
Every year we accept donations as part of our Christmas toy appeal. We give amazing gifts to families who are struggling at this time of the year.
Half term school dinners
We know how hard it can be for parents to provide food during the school half term - so we lend a helping hand and over support with lunches.
Stories of Hope
Real Stories, Real Impact
We've helped so many people this year,
and this is what they had to say...
" This Lady was my light in the dark, she made me sure she raised enough money to take the burden off my shoulders to cover the costs of my beautiful boys funeral"
Kay Blunt
"Claires kindness blew me away from the second I met her. A helping hand for so many. There's never any embarrassment or judgment, just understanding"
Sarah
"I would like to say a massive thank you to Claire for helping me, I had to flee my area due to domestic abuse. I contacted Claire about help with school clothes and she didn't hesitate to help"

How can you
help?
Even though we are a foodbank, we often find that food is only one of many things that families need support with. We have opened up the food bank to a wide range of donations.
We have a gofundme for monetary donations, an Amazon wishlist for very specific things we need, and ofcourse food donations.
Please email mommaclairebearcaringfoodbank@gmail.com
for details of where to drop these donations off.
We appreciate every donation.
Toiletries
Items such as deodorants, body wash, shampoo & conditioner are great.
Feminine products
Feminine hygiene products
can be some of the most expensive products to afford every month.
Tinned Food
Tinned food such as beans, sweetcorn and any vegetables are great.
Dairy products
Milk, cheese & Eggs are much appreciated. We find these are the most needed and are great basics.
Pasta
Pasta & rice are core parts of a meal and very affordable to donate.
Cleaning products
Multi-purpose sprays, washing up liquid and washing powder are great donations.
A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR SUPPORTERS
