As we move into 2026, many households across Anglesey are facing a difficult start to the year. January is often one of the toughest months, with higher bills, reduced income, and the financial pressures left behind after Christmas.
At Anglesey Foodbank, our focus remains on offering practical support with dignity, compassion and care — and on working with partners to help people move forward, not just get through crisis.
Looking Back: November & December Highlights
The final months of 2025 saw an incredible outpouring of community support, helping us meet increased demand over the winter period.
Big Give Christmas Challenge
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we raised an amazing £6,176.90 through the Big Give Christmas Challenge.
This has brought us one important step closer to creating The Hub — Holyhead’s first social supermarket and community support space.
The Hub will help people:
- access affordable food in a dignified way
- receive advice and guidance
- feel welcomed and supported
- take steps toward longer-term stability
We’d like to say a heartfelt diolch yn fawr to everyone who donated, shared our appeal, or helped spread the word.
