Sainsbury's Twickenham Station Local

The Food with Love Community Pantry is a community food club, run by and for its members offering good quality, healthy and nutritious food through low cost membership. In June this year (2022) Food with Love (FwL) launched a new and innovative service aimed to empower the residents of the London Borough of Hounslow. The FwL Community Pantry helps families living on the threshold to sustain their livelihoods whilst maintaining their self worth and dignity. We are a community resource; here for those who need us. Our main aim is to; - Support and strengthen the self-esteem of members - Increase self-reliance and resilience - Reduce reliance on food banks. Each member makes a small contribution towards the cost of the food they choose during their weekly visit to the Pantry. To ensure that essential staples are always available the Pantry reinvests all of its member’s fees to buying stock. One of the ethos of FwL is to help decrease the amount of food that is needlessly sent to landfill each year. FwL collects and redistributes surplus stock from supermarkets and food manufacturers within the London Borough of Hounslow. The nature of suppliers means that the supplies are varied every week.

The Real Junk Food Project Twickenham collects surplus food from local shops destined for landfill, and with the help of its volunteers, turns it into delicious, healthy meals for all of the community on a 'Pay As You Feel' basis. Please come along and join us, bring your family, friends or yourself for good food, good company and a good cause (remember to bring a bag so you can take some goodies home, we always have a good selection of breads and sweet treats and various fruit & veg) Our aim is to FEED BELLIES NOT BINS We are open every Monday, Wednesday and Friday 11am-1pm (excluding bank holidays) Also if you are looking for a lovely project to be involved in please feel free to contact us as we always have room for new volunteers and their individual skills.
