49 meals served tonight consisting of jerk chicken with rice, peas and vegetables and kofte kebab with salad, chips and beans. Also served, bread rolls, chocolate bars and water. Socks, scarves, gloves and some coats given out. A very busy but lovely night with one regular giving free hugs yo anyone in need. We had a surprise visit from a gentleman we've not seen for nearly 2yrs. He came back to share how well he is doing and to say hello. It's so very lovely to be remembered in such a positive way.
Thank you to all who contributed to this evening and those who support us. Together we can make a difference ❤️

I know we're a couple of months off Christmas but, we here at Feedbourners, need to plan well in advance. So, we're appealing to the good and great of Eastbourne.
Any amount, however small, goes a long way. Our volunteers are amazing and creative. We are looking for donations of juices, cereal bars, crisps, fruit, choc bars, biscuits, cakes, sweets, toiletries or anything you think may help.
Warm clothing, particularly coats/jackets, beanies and socks are always needed.
We also have a Go Fund me page if you would rather donate. https://gofund.me/8413af348

Together we can make a difference ❤️

We are a group of volunteers who cook hot, home-made meals for people ex… Charlotte Dee needs your support for Feedbourners provide hot meals to those in need

A very fast and furious night, with 25 spicy sausage pastas (inc one gluten free and two veggie) and 20 chicken casseroles, lots of bread rolls, eggs, delicious cakes and bread pudding! All gone in 35 minutes. A few seconds given out.

A mostly good humoured crowd, with the exception one one very drunk man, who insisted he was first and served two meals ahead of others waiting. No danger felt and he eventually accepted that wasn’t going to happen. Again it felt more females are attending.

Thanks to everyone, and together we are making a difference.

43 meals of chicken curry with rice and campfire stew with roast potatoes. Also served, bread rolls, water and bread pudding. Thank you Jane Barty for the bread pudding. Several snack packs (pot noodles, crisps, cereal bar) also given out. All good humoured and absolutely lovely apart from on inebriated man who felt entitled and very grumpy. Heartbreaking to see two young lads who it transpires were trying to sleep in wet sleeping bags. Fortunately, we had 2 dry ones. One of them working but not enough money for rent. Asked for a snack pack for his lunch tomorrow. If ever 2 people needed rescuing and support, they did.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this evening and those who support us. Together we can make a difference ❤️
