It is widely known that some of the biggest threats of aging are hunger, isolation and loss of independence. Here at CURO we have a range of community-based programs in BANES that are dedicated to addressing these issues. By providing leadership, education and advocacy support, we empower local residents to strengthen their communities. On Tuesday 1 August, Curo will be launching a special project to bring food and support to rural communities. The Pantry is a food bank and so much more, bringing much-needed help to hard-to-reach customers as the Cost of Living crisis continues. We’d love people from the local community to join us for the launch of The Pantry at Curo’s Community Room in Welton Vale, Midsomer Norton, Radstock, Somerset, BA3 2BG, 10am-2pm.
