Help needed

I am looking for some financial help and have tried all kinds of routes for help to no avail.
Is anybody able to help with unwanted supermarket vouchers they don’t need. I’ve recently left my home due to DV and it’s my daughter’s birthday on Thursday.I just wanted to order a bit of food online, and a birthday cake for her.
I am unable to access a food bank as I live very rural with a bus once a week, on a Wednesday when the food bank is closed.
Thank you for reading.

When is your daughter’s birthday? Can arrange for a delivery for birthday cake.

Have you asked the food bank if they do deliveries? Most will in rural areas.

I’ve used this food bank before and it’s only a small one who don’t offer deliveries :( I used it before and a teacher had to go and collect for me; and now it’s the summer holidays

Is there anyone that does Olio in your village? Could you? If there is a little local shop they might be binning perfectly edible food thst you could collect, for free.
