Nine food clubs across the borough. Members pay £3 a week and take home around £25 of shopping they choose themselves - a shop, not a parcel.- Open six days, no referral needed
- Eleven paid staff and ninety volunteers
- Surplus stock from four supermarkets
Hot kitchens
Two kitchens serving four hundred meals a week, sitting down, on plates. January is the busiest month of the year.- Tuesday and Friday, 5pm to 8pm
- Every meal cooked on site that day
- No questions asked at the door
Holiday programme
Six weeks of the school holidays covered for two hundred children - breakfast, lunch and something worth getting up for in between.- Free to families on the register
- Qualified play staff, all DBS checked
- Easter, summer and Christmas

Give monthly if you can
A standing order lets us plan, which is worth more than the same amount once.
