JENESES COMMUNITY SHOP &
FOODBANK

Supporting Our Community Since 2021

The Jeneses Community Shop and Foodbank was created in 2021 by Steve Brunton, John Wick and Jenny Jones OBE the owner of the Jeneses Community Centre.

Five years later, Jeneses works closely with other local food provision charities,
the Citizens Advice and the local council community partner to help reduce food waste and while identifying and supporting those most in need within our community.

Reducing Food Waste. Supporting People.

Through a wide range of donated goods and furniture, Jeneses soon opened its Charity Shop, which helps support the running costs of the Food bank.

Jeneses is an independent Community Shop & Foodbank and does not receive any funding from the government or external sources.

We rely on:
• Income from our charity shop
Income from our Facebook Selling page
• Public donations
Suggested Donations for food items
• Occasional direct donations of food
• Surplus food donated and collected daily through Fairshare, Neighbourly and Blue Cross.
About Our Food
The majority of food available at Jeneses has reached its ‘best before’ date — but not all.

We collect surplus food:
• On the day it reaches its ‘best before’ date or just before..
• Several times daily
We collect food every day through:
* FareShare
* Neighbourly
* Blue Cross
At:
• Tesco
• Aldi
And weekly from:
• Booker Group
• KFC
• Nando’s
•Pets at home

Food Quality & Safety
• We carefully select good fruit and in-date vegetables from damaged
packets where only one item may not be usable.
• Any suitable ‘use by’ items are frozen on or before their expiry date.
• Some ‘in date’ items may have damaged outer packaging but remain
sealed internally (e.g. cereal boxes, multi-pack crisps).
• Many dry goods and tins are donated by the public and supermarkets that are well within date — often with years remaining.

We are Registered as a food establishment with the local Council
Environmental Health Office (EHO).
Opening Hours
Open 5 days a week
Tuesday - Saturday
9:00am – 2:00pm

Our charity shop runs alongside the foodbank and offers:

A massive thank you to Ollie and everyone at Howdens (Bognor) for their kind donation of £250!! 😁 Spent an hour or 2 at Howdens ‘Trade fair day’.. chatting to a few customers.. if you’re in the building game or building maintenance , get down to Durban Rd and open an account!

We also need to do a little more promotion for the Foodbank - so watch this space! 😉

Hi All!… we’ve got a lot of work going on in and around the building over the next month or so.. our fire and alarm systems desperately needed to be updated and there will be a lot of workmen and heavy equipment needing frequent access.

We’ve decided it’s in everyone’s best interests if we shut on Mondays for the month of February, for safety reasons and so the work can be completed. This means from next Monday 2nd February we will only be open:

Tuesdays 9am - 2pm
Wednesdays 9am - 2pm
Thursdays 9am - 2pm
Fridays 9am - 2pm
Saturdays 9am - 2pm

Please do not come near the building or leave donations outside of these times.

Also, please only leave donations inside the front door during opening times.

We are only taking clothes and in date food donations plus small items of furniture and Bric a Brac.

We do not accept towels, bedding, books, CDs, DVDs ( Box Sets Ok ) dolls, teddies, toys. Please ring 07782 982894 for more info. Thank You.

A lot of charities and community help groups.. including Jeneses, are feeling the squeeze as the cost of living and other costs rise..

Inflation has reduced both donations and disposable income

Happy New Year to all our Customers!

It’s been almost 4 years since we opened the Jeneses Community Shop & Foodbank and according to my Fairshare App (screenshot below) we have collected 2890 times, which is the equivalent of 116,658 meals!

Thank you all for supporting our little charity shop which funds the Foodbank and to all the people that have donated!👏👏
