Support the smooth running of a small, local charity that aims to tackle food poverty by addressing the underlying causes of food inequality. This will ensure our Warehouse runs effectively, so food parcels are prepared and delivered to guests on time, and that volunteers are well-supported and fulfilled in their role. Our Food Bank operates Monday to Friday for people across Southwark.

What our guests say: "I lost my job because of the pandemic and was unemployed for over a year. I would never have been able to support my wife and kids without your assistance. The help given to me was really fundamental." What our volunteers say: "The pandemic has shown us that community and kindness is one of the most important tools that we have and must share. Volunteering at Spring Community Hub has really affirmed and fulfilled that sense of community and connection."
