Chichester District Foodbank is delighted to be partnering with UKHarvest to bring Community Grub Clubs to our Chichester food bank centre, helping more people access fresh, nutritious food while reducing food waste.

Grub Clubs will be held monthly, with the first two taking place on Thursday 30 July and Thursday 27 August.

The sessions will be held at our Chichester food bank centre:

Chichester District Foodbank
Unit 10, Chichester Trade Centre
Quarry Lane
Chichester
PO19 8ET

The Grub Club is open to everyone. Simply bring a shopping bag and, if you’re able, make a suggested donation of £5 to help UKHarvest run more Grub Clubs across the community. No referral or means testing is required, and no one will be turned away.

Visitors can expect a wide variety of quality surplus food, including fresh fruit and vegetables, bread and baked goods, dairy products, proteins and much more, with the selection changing each month depending on what has been rescued.

Sarah Adams, our CEO said: “We’re so pleased to have teamed up with UKHarvest to bring Community Grub Clubs to our food bank and make fresh, nutritious food more accessible to local people alongside our emergency food parcels”.

“With many households continuing to feel the pressure of rising costs, the Grub Club offers another way for people to access good quality food, while also helping to prevent perfectly good food from going to waste. We warmly invite anyone in our community to come along and see what’s available.”

Whether you’re looking to stretch your household budget, reduce food waste or access fresh, quality food, please do come along.
