Thanks so much if you tried to donate last time we sent this email and apologies if you had issues - our payment account and Buy me a Coffee account had a falling out! We are assured it is all fixed now and open for payment :)
So far £45 of £350 raised so the problem got fixed in the nick of time! Graham is doing another collection this morning and we need to cover the cost of this vital part of our pantry service.
Every week, we collect surplus food from a local food waste charity and local co-ops for our community pantry and redistribute the food. We love taking perfectly good, nutritious food that would become waste and sharing it, or making it into soup to offer in our community cafe!
To keep our collection slot, we have to send somebody at the same time each week and so this has to be done by a paid member of our crew, to ensure consistency. Wages & travel come to an estimated £10 per collection, so we're asking our community to help fund the collections this summer - 35 of them - so that we can keep stocking our pantry and saving food from the bin.
We can't keep doing these collections without support, which is where you come in.
