 Online Referral System Guidance.pdf

 

  • Dorchester Foodbank operates an online referral system and a new referral is required for each food parcel.
  • Each referral is valid for 7 days from date of issue
  • We do not offer a delivery service (please contact us for possible alternatives)


In partnership with Dorset Council, and other local foodbanks, we have developed the attached guidance for referrers. Please ensure that you are aware of the contents of this guidance.
