Community Food Larders, Pantries & Shops

A Community Larder or Community Pantry scheme provides food for its members, with people picking items themselves in a shop-like environment.

It is a great way to access nutritious food at a low cost. Members need to register for a small fee. They will then pay around £4.00 each time they use the larder or pantry and for that payment they will be able to choose approximately £15 worth of food.

Community larders, pantries and shops are accessible to anyone living within the local area - you do not need to be in receipt of any state benefits to become a member.
