RF Paving is proud to announce a new ongoing commitment to support the vital work of Leeds South & East Foodbank, a local charity dedicated to helping people in crisis across South and East Leeds.
Through regular financial contributions, RF Paving aims to provide sustainable support to ensure that emergency food and compassionate services reach those who need them most.
Leeds South & East Foodbank is part of the nationwide network of foodbanks working to combat food poverty and hunger across the UK. The organisation provides three days of nutritionally balanced emergency food and additional support services to local individuals and families referred during times of crisis. In 2024–2025, the foodbank supported more than 14,000 people, including 35% who were children.
A Long-Term Commitment to Local People in Need
“We are deeply committed to giving back to the communities we serve,” said Amy Andrews, Managing Director of RF Paving.
“No one should have to worry about where their next meal is coming from, and we’re proud to support Leeds South & East Foodbank’s incredible work. We hope our contributions bring some relief and dignity to families facing hardship.
“Hard times can affect anyone at any time, and we encourage other local businesses to give back and support people in need in their own communities with whatever help they can.”
Wendy Doyle, Operations Manager at Leeds South & East Foodbank, commented: “We’d like to thank RF Paving for their continued support of our foodbank. Their generosity helps us provide essential food and supplies to local people who are going through a difficult time.
“Ongoing support from businesses like RF Paving makes a steady and reliable difference to our work, and we’re grateful to have them alongside us in supporting the community.”
With demand for emergency food support continuing to rise across the UK, regular financial donations are crucial to enabling foodbanks to purchase essential items, cover operational costs, and respond quickly to community needs. Leeds South & East Foodbank doesn’t just distribute food – volunteers offer a welcoming environment, a listening ear, and practical guidance to help people through difficult times.
Encouraging Business-Led Support Across the Community
RF Paving’s support reflects its ongoing commitment to community wellbeing, social responsibility, and partnership with local charitable organisations. The company encourages others in the private sector to consider sustainable and impactful ways to support foodbanks and those experiencing food insecurity.
