THE GOOD …

We all seem to be feeling the effects of constant price rises (whilst multinationals report record profits) so it’s heart-warming to hear about the kindness of others.

The Canteen, based at the Old Hospital Hub in Southwold, are giving guests the opportunity to obtain a monthly lunch based on what they can afford through a Pay-What-You-Can-Afford system.

Head Chef, Nicola Hordern, tells us, “Our Sunday Community Lunches have been a great success, with gratitude to Councillor Michael Ladd’s £500 locality grant and the heart-warming contributions of over £1200 through our Crowdfunder. Our team of devoted volunteers generously host these community-driven lunches on the last Sunday of each month, and guests are welcome to attend at a cost that accommodates their budget. The set menus are prepared by talented chefs who are passionate about making delicious food available to everyone.” This Pay It Forward scheme helps to subsidise individuals to meet up and socialise and for families to come together over great food.

“Our partnership with the Southwold Library brings a delightful surprise to our youngest guests after lunch, with children’s entertainment including films, crafts, and games,” adds Nicola. “We are humbled by the support we have received from the community and look forward to continuing to serve our guests with warmth and kindness.” l To book a lunch spot, email sydney@southgen.co.uk, call The Canteen on 07916 173088, or visit in person, The Canteen, Old Hospital Hub, Field Stile Road, Southwold.
