COMMUNITY MEALS

Come and enjoy a meal with your friends and neighbours

We know how important it is to create opportunities for communities to come together, so we regularly put on a lunch or dinner for around 50 Pantry members.

These community meals are either free or very low cost, with vegetarian options available. They’re a great way to catch up with friends and neighbours, and meet some new ones too.

What did I like best? Everything. I’ll give it 11 out of 10.

I loved the food – but I loved the fact of being together even more.

Here’s how our community meals work

Look out for an invite

We’ll contact everyone on our list letting them know we have a meal in the diary. If we have more people interested than places, we’ll allocate them in a fair way.

Leave the food to us

Your meal will either be cooked by a group of clients during a teambuilding event, or by our chef and a team of volunteers. Either way, we can promise it’ll be delicious.

Skip the clearing up

We’ll make sure the clearing and washing up is taken care of, so you won’t have anything to do but eat, chat and relax.
