Community Renewal: Lifting Neighbourhoods Together and Places for People invite you to join your local community pantry in The Hays
You can save on your shopping bills! For example you could get £15 worth of food for £3!
You will have a choice of what food you would like.
By buying produce at the pantry, you will allow us to carry on providing more food for you and your community at super low prices.
You will also be helping the environment, as the surplus food is sourced from local supermarkets and food sellers where it may otherwise be wasted.
Where & when is it?
The Hays Community Pantry is at Places for People, 3 Hay Avenue, Edinburgh EH16 4QR. Wednesdays (excluding holidays) 11am-2pm
What can I expect to buy at The Pantry?
You can expect to find dry food (e.g pasta and rice), tinned foods, packeted and long-life foods, fresh vegetables, bakery goods, refrigerated items and toiletries
What happens when I get to the pantry?
When you arrive at the pantry you will be greeted by one of our friendly staff/volunteers and asked whether it is your first time at the pantry and whether you have registered. You will then browse our store and choose the items you want and pay for them at our till (cash only at this time).
How do I join?
You can join with a one-off membership price of £1. Just contact us by email hayspantry@communityrenewal.org.uk, or call 07738 760 601 or just come down when we are open, and we can take a few details from you and set you up before you shop.
