An invaluable community hub where we learnt of their operations and their need for funding. Many thanks to the BH Pantry team for organising this. We also enjoyed a great presentation from Mid Sussex Voluntary Action (MSVA) about how providing opportunities for your staff to be involved in local community volunteering can really reap benefits to your own bottom line. The Pantry is not a foodbank, the items are not given away. Nevertheless, you don’t need to have a special recommendation from the NHS, social services or similar to access it. There is however a waiting list to join. |
If you are a signed-up member of the BH Pantry you can shop here. Prices are a small fraction of what you would pay at the supermarket. This provides dignity for those using this service. The items are collected from members of the public and from a range of local stores and suppliers who give them near to out-of-date items. |
