Monkwood Community Food Hub
Chesterfield, UK
We support the most vulnerable in our community with food parcels each week To set up a Hut to serve residents in Newbold/Dunston and the surrounding areas, a place of building relationships and a place of safety, security; where everyone feels welcomed and supported. It will be a centre within the Newbold/Dunston area, catering for people of all ages and from all walks of life. The main purpose of the Hut will be a food distribution project during Covid 19 and beyond. It will be staffed by volunteers from the local area Where people who are needing support with their food can come and pick up a food parcel or we can deliver a parcel to them. We will support people in the Dunston, Newbold, Moor, New and Old Whittington areas. If people aren’t able to come to the Hut we will deliver out to them. Where eventually people can come to socialise and have a cuppa and do activities together. Where people can come to relax, have time to talk, know that someone is interested in them as a person, where people from all ages can come together to support each other, sharing interests and skills. Where people are signposted on to other agencies who can offer support.
