Crescent Food Bank’s aim is to prevent or relieve food poverty by providing food aid and relief goods; specifically, to operate a food bank for the benefit of the people of Bolton and surrounding areas.
We are working to remove the need for food banks to exist in Bolton and surrounding areas.
Our Inspiration
Based on the saying of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him,
He is not a believer who sleeps satisfied while his neighbour goes hungry.

This saying is at the heart of our mission to assist impoverished individuals and families.
