Beverley Food Pantry
Our food pantry helps meet the need for affordable food in Beverley & East Yorkshire.
During lockdown the centre manager, trustees, staff, and volunteers worked incredibly hard to support the community. Seeing the struggles people were facing and the number of families going without food, they quickly identified there was a need for a community pantry. The Cherry Tree Pantry was formed.
Once a membership form has been filled in and a slot allocated, members pay a £7 weekly membership and visit the pantry once a week. This allows them to receive 10 items from a selection including fresh meat, cheese, butter, frozen items, tinned items, cereals and hygiene/cleaning products etc as well as bread, pastries and fresh fruit and vegetables.
The Beverley Cherry Tree Community Pantry is here to help anyone in need. Our volunteers are all warm and welcoming and will help and support you when you visit. We understand the crisis is affecting everyone, working, pensioners, disabled, redundancy and sometimes an unexpected bill can affect all areas of your life. If you feel we can help, please get in touch.
Cherry Tree Centre are working in partnership with ERFPA and all pantry’s have a designated outreach advisor covering the whole of East Yorkshire – contact us for an appointment.
We are grateful for the support of local and national businesses who help with food donations.
