​

The Pantry model is conducive to new relationships and friendships. Seeing people week after week, getting to know one another, and discussing local issues with each other generates real power, camaraderie, and togetherness.

​

The element of choice is really important. It can be very hard to feel dignified and positive if you are receiving a pre-packed parcel that someone else has chosen.  We all have things we do or don’t like in our shopping, and are all accustomed to being able to make those choices. The Pantry approach recognizes how important that is.

 

We have an awesome team of volunteers who regularly give their time to serve the community, some of our faithful volunteers are pictured above.
