We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. Our foodbank is a project founded by local churches and community groups, working together towards stopping hunger throughout Arfon. We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry.

The Arfon Foodbank is open Tuesdays and Fridays from 10am – 2pm for administrative operations and 12pm-2pm for clients to pick up parcels. To reach the foodbank outside of these hours, please email info@arfon.foodbank.org.uk and we will be in touch as soon as possible.

We rely on the support of our local community for food donations, volunteering and finances. Can you help us stop UK hunger?

Our foodbank works using a voucher referral system. Find out more about how we work.

Welcome to Yr Orsaf. A place to eat, stay, develop creative skills and contribute to the community.

Yr Orsaf is bustling with people getting together to socialise and eat, taking part in creative workshops, developing digital skills and a lot more.

Yr Orsaf is located in the heart of Penygroes, Dyffryn Nantlle.

The old building was rescued by a group of volunteers in 2016 and a committee was established with the name Siop Griffiths Cyf. Our aim is to ensure that this historic building stays in the hands of the community, for the benefit of the community.

In the past this building was a busy inn before turning into an ironmongers shop with the name Siop Griffiths.

By now, Yr Orsaf is so much more than just a building. It's an important community hub in Dyffryn Nantlle which offers valuable opportunities for children, young people and adults and also provides work for the people who live here.

Yr Orsaf is now home to a cafe, 3 room bunkhouse, multi use room, digital centre and offices for the staff. Also, there are numerous ongoing projects, from our Community Food Pantry to the Music Workshop for young people, there's something for everyone.

The enterprise is going from strength to strength, and we now have a host of activities and events and some exciting plans for the future.
