FAQs
Is it a Foodbank?
A Community Supermarket is not a foodbank. Once you are a member, you can come for as often and as long as you like. The main difference between a community supermarket and a foodbank is that you will be able to choose from a range of food and other items, so that you can get the food you and your family enjoy the most.
Can I just get food?
Their main focus is on providing healthy & delicious food, but members will also have access to toiletries, sanitary products, as well as some cleaning, washing products and toilet roll. Their selection will vary each week depending on what they have been given, but they welcome suggestions if there is something in particular you would like them to offer and they will do their best to get it for you.
