COMMUNITY LARDER

We’re making steady progress establishing the Community Larder here at RAF Honington!

Very many thanks to Honington & Sapiston Council, Methodist Forces Board and Church of England Chaplains Fund for the generous donations so far. We now have a fridge (!), some food being made available and a location…we now just need the permanent location to be made fit for purpose then watch out for publicity coming through your doors and to noticeboards soon. Whilst we’re working hard behind the scenes, please note that there is a temporary Larder located by the station Sports Pavillion, with a table and fridge; so if you have food that is useable but not needed please feel free to donate it there. Also, do keep popping by to see what’s being left there – mystery teas are becoming a speciality!!

Hopefully by the next Herald, we will be able to announce a proper launch of the project and see the links in the wider community go from strength to strength as we push ahead with the Larder.

Please remember it is focusing on reducing food waste… NOT a foodbank. We are receiving donations from apps such as Olio, as well as personal donations. For more information about getting involved, please contact Padre Jo: Josephine. critchley101@mod.gov.uk / x7141
