Our community pantry helps local people access affordable food while reducing food waste by redistributing surplus food intercepted from a variety of sources. We are passionate about rescuing good food that would otherwise be discarded and ensuring it benefits people within our community instead. The pantry operates on a low-cost membership basis, with a £5 annual membership fee and £3 per shop (maximum of two shops per week). Members can choose from a wide range of food, helping families and individuals stretch their budgets while maintaining dignity and choice. As well as supporting people with food, we aim to create a welcoming and inclusive community space. Last year, we refurbished and extended our building to better serve local people and recently opened a weekly Pay-As-You-Feel Café. The café is already proving to be a popular and valued space where people can enjoy affordable meals, meet others, and access support in a warm and friendly environment. Everything we do is volunteer-led and rooted in community, sustainability, and supporting local people through challenging times.

St Helens Borough Mobile Community Food Pantry believes everyone should have access to affordable and nutritious food by bridging the gaps between community food provisions. The St Helens Borough Mobile Community Food Pantry bridges the gaps between the community food provisions across the St Helens Borough. We are a joint faith and voluntary group initiative working alongside members of the St Helens Borough Community Food Providers Alliance, this two year dream is now a reality and is accessible for those who need it. The Mobile Pantry is a member of the Your Local Pantry network and operates as an affordable food club where membership is free and members only pay a fee each time they visit with only one weekly visit permitted. The majority of the food we offer comes from surplus from shops and businesses which would otherwise have gone to landfill. Typically the mobile community food pantry reach supports a total household size of over 3000 of the borough's residents. With over 1000 members, we are the only food pantry in the borough that is accessible four days a week. We operate in the heart of some of the borough's most deprived communities. We are in Newton-le-Willows on a Monday morning when we visit the Cross Lane United Church and hold a pantry session there 10:30 am until 12 noon.
