COMMUNITY PROGRAMME
Our Community Pantry
Boost your weekly shop and help limit food waste
Our Community Pantry is a surplus food membership scheme offering low cost, healthy food and a whole lot more.
For just £3.50 a week, you’ll get to come in once a week on a designated day, and choose a basket of shopping worth between £15 and £25, to top up your usual weekly shop.
There are a range of fresh, frozen and storecupboard ingredients available, and you'll be able to make choices based on what your household likes.
You can also pick up some cooking tips and ideas, catch up with your neighbours, grab a coffee, and have a chat with Martha, our community coordinator.
The pantry helps the environment because it is stocked with high quality in-date surplus ingredients from manufacturers and supermarkets that would otherwise go to waste.
The pantry is due to launch mid-September, on one day a week (day TBC). The pantry will be open from 10am - 2pm on the designated day. Cash and card payments will be accepted.

Our Community Kitchen
The Cook for Good @ Kings Cross kitchen is scheduled to open in November, and will be home to a programme of food and cooking events, for people living on and around the local estates.
We'll be running cooking classes for all ages, and will cook up regular community meals for residents to come along and enjoy with friends and neighbours. And our surplus food pantry will offer members the chance to top up their weekly shop at a big discount.
We’ve been fortunate to have the backing of some fantastic organisations to get us to this point. So our thanks go to Facebook, Argent, Ninja, Peabody Housing Association, Axis Engineering, TP Bennett, QA Design and ISG for supporting the build and fit out of our exciting new space.
As well as hosting our community programme, the kitchen will also be used for our in-person corporate teambuilding events, once Covid-19 restrictions allow. If you’re interested in taking part in an event, or would like to know more about supporting our work more generally, please get in touch.
In the meantime, we’re still running our teambuilding events virtually (via Zoom), so if you’re looking for a way to bring your team back together, learn some new skills and support a fantastic cause, please contact us
