B&Q Leven

Redemption House provides food, clothing and advice to those in need for the relief of the poor. Situated in Kirkcaldy Fife, it reaches out to Buckhaven, Methil and Leven. The project will not only bring people together in a safe place and provide them with something to eat but also arrange for individuals to take food home for their families too. Counselling is offered by an experienced care co-ordinator who can signpost rough sleepers to shelters in the area to ensure they have a roof over their heads. This food hub is unique in Kirkcaldy in that it is open during the day in the week. This will enable more people to benefit from the service and support families who are on tight budgets and are keen to provide healthy food options for their children.

The People's Pantry the Centre Leven is a not for profit organisation. We have a membership of 130 people and 15 volunteers. We run a Friday pantry where members receive high quality food that may have otherwise been destined for landfill. We are also looking after our environment by reducing single use plastics through operating a refill station where members bring in reusable containers which are refilled with pasta, rice, tea, coffee, sugar and potatoes. We are looking for support from local businesses by means of either cash donations or surplus food donations. For more information telephone 01334 659348.
