WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Boscombe Community Fridge, which has provided solutions to food waste and hunger in Boscombe since 2017, has teamed up with Grounded Community to launch 'Feed our community' project during the Covid19 crisis.

With the closure of Boscombe library and with it our fridge in March due to Covid-19 measures, food distribution has continued through deliveries by our amazing team of volunteers, who are working around the clock to feed our community.

We are currently feeding around 600+ people/per week in and around Boscombe who have to self isolate, have lost their jobs or can't access food for any other reason.

Our team is picking up and distributing 2-3 tonnes of surplus and donated food per week, from supermarkets and Lovechurch at St Clement's Church.

To make this possible, we needed to find a new venue and a bigger vehicle. Amazingly, Urban Shanti Community offered us their Yoga Studio and David Haines from Namaste Developments lend us his van!

Meanwhile, the Grounded Community team are planting and growing in Boscombe, which will provide fresh produce as the year continues, in the hope that the 'Feed our Community' project will help meet local food security needs in the short and longer term.

If you want to support our team effort to ensure food security in our community, please donate today!

THANK YOU!

Your 'Feed our community' Team
