ALDI KIRKBY-IN-ASHFIELD

Our centre opens 4 days a week and offers support to all of our local community, and is available to anyone without the need for a referral. We work tirelessly to tackle food waste and provide food, non food items, support and access to services to all. We offer surplus food, free of any charges (membership fees etc) to ANYONE within the community and aim to support those most in need. Hot meals are supplied 3 days a week and non perishable emergency food parcels are provided to those in need and we NEVER ASK QUESTIONS... Our goal is simple: 1. To tackle food waste 2. To ensure that EVERYONE has what they need Our services are available to the whole community without prejudice and we are committed to helping those in need- regardless of circumstance. We are a fully inclusive centre and pride ourselves on equality. We are fully volunteer run and have an amazing team on hand, ready and willing to do everything possible to provide help, support and safety for all

We reach out to our local community with food parcels and also meals. We fight to alleviate poverty and make sure people have food to eat and also ensure that food is not wasted. We also provide support to children and families in the community. We are able to achieve our vision and carry out our activities through free will donations and support from community members, food surplus which we share to people. We are a religious charity group based in Mansfield and support approximately 150 people weekly including adults and children. We currently operate from Trinity Methodist Church at the address below. 117 Clipstone Road W 117 Clipstone Road West Forest Town Mansfield NG19 0BT United Kingdom We also had the Environmental Health team visited us on 08/10/2024 for Food Safety Inspection and we were awarded 5 star rating. We are in the process of acquiring and moving to our own property and that would be our permanent operation site. We hope to move within the next 4-6 weeks. The Environmental Health team at Mansfield District Council is aware of the proposed relocation The new address would be : Methodist Church Bridge Street MANSFIELD NG18 2HA Service users are members of the church community and we also share with our neighbours in the community as shown in the pictures on our page.
