LARDER HAS RE-OPENED!
We had a successful re-opening of Laurence's Larder on 17 September - for take-out meals only. This followed a detailed assessment to ensure we were taking all suitable precautions.
Thank you to those who helped us raise over £1,000 to reopen the larder.
Please continue to DONATE to help us keep this vital service going for our guests.
We are currently offering a take-out service one day a week, on Thursdays.

Christmas appeal
Laurence's Larder provides a warm welcome and fresh food for those struggling to make ends meet in our community and beyond.
The Covid-19 pandemic has hit many people hard so please help us make this Christmas special for our guests.
You can do this by supporting us to provide delicious take-away meals and extra special store cupboard essentials - perhaps with a little treat for the festive season.
We are grateful to our many generous donors, some of whom are struggling themselves. Please help us to do as much as we can for those who need our help at this very challenging time.
You can DONATE HERE.
Wishing you a festive time over Christmas and the new year.

About Us
Laurence's Larder provides a warm welcome and fresh food for those who struggle to make ends meet in our community and beyond.
Before we had to close temporarily during lockdown it was open every Tuesday and Thursday from 10am to 1.30pm to anyone in need - no referral needed.
We provided a three-course meal which was typically soup, a pasta or other favourite such as cottage or fish pie, followed by a pudding such as crumble and custard or fruit salad. For those in even greater need, we provide dried and tinned food for a few days to take away.
We also have clothes washing facilities and a shower as well as a clothes bank available during our opening hours.
People of all faiths, and none, are welcome.
It costs £1,000 a month to run the charity, despite generous donations from our supporters (below). We welcome donations of money, food and adult clothing.
The larder, which is a registered charity (1185983), is managed by Stephen Chamberlain who can be reached via info@laurenceslarder.org.uk.

Our committee
Make a donation
Every month it costs us £1,000 to feed those who come to us for a hot meal, a shower, to wash their clothes and have a chat.
Despite the generosity of those who give us food, clothes and their time, we still have to pay for staple foods to create the dishes and for the utilities we use such as hot water and electricity for the tumble dryers.
Please help us to keep the larder going at this time of great need in our community and beyond.
Please donate here.
Please email us at info@laurenceslarder.org.uk if you can help with donations of food, clothes or your time.
