This service is open to residents of the Chet Valley (Loddon, Chedgrave, Hales & Heckingham, Langley & Hardley, Sisland), to help each other with reducing food waste and to share food to those in need. 🥕🍞

The donation shelves & fridge are open throughout the week and we appreciate any donations you may wish to make, including cash donations, these can be handed to volunteers or at the Loddon Town Council office. 🥔🥫💵

Registrations for food bags can be made via the Loddon Town Council, alternatively at the library during the open sessions, or use this link to complete the online form - https://shorturl.at/9qYnY

We’re really pleased to be able to have this facility in Loddon and would like to thank everyone who makes it all possible. We are extremely grateful to those who provide donations and to the volunteers who help make sure that the larder is accessible and stocked.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Did you know …. The Trust is a Charity helping Loddon residents struggling in financial difficulty.

We can only do this by kind donations from the public, hence careful consideration.

Small one off grants can be made for welfare or educational needs and are paid direct to the supplier for items such as white goods etc

The Trust will ask for background detail/information from every applicant to ensure the donated funds go to the most worthy causes.

A big thank you to Loddon Town Council for granting us the money to purchase our own display stand so we no longer have to borrow 🙏
