Littlehampton Community Fridge On Tour

2 days ago

The 'Grab Bag Thursday' is going well, and we are pleased that people who aren't able to queue are coming and our able to benefit from the surplus food we have once a week.

Please DO NOT come along if you can come and queue to a normal session, or if you have not had an appointment confirmed.

Please DO come and get your Grab-bag if you have ordered one. We only have a limited number and you are creating food waste and stopping someone else from benefitting from the surplus.

Sadly we had someone not able to queue had to go without today because of people who had not booked a grab-bag were creating a queue. We know it's a change, but if you can queue you can come to any of other other sessions. 🥺

We realise some people are not on Facebook, anyone can sign up for our text service which will send you a text message direct to your phone of any major changes please call 0300 030 9376 option 1,Options 1, Option 2 and leave your details.

Please be kind and let people who can't queue have a day when they can come quietly and easily to collect a bag of surplus food. #kindness #community #tellpeoplenotonsocialmedia #noqueues ... See MoreSee Less

NEW service this week called ‘Grab-bag Thursday’s’ (INSTEAD of our regular session)

If you are UNABLE TO QUEUE for whatever reason, please make an appointment to collect a ‘Grab-bag’ between 10.30-11.30am on a Thursday morning.

fb.com/book/littlehamptoncommunityfridge/

Grab-bags will contain fresh fruit/ veg & bread and possibly one or two other surplus items depending on what we have available on the day.

You will come to the hall, be handed a bag at the entrance and you can go, as simple as that. Unfortunately, the full range of fridge and freezer items will not be available to you but we hope this will help some people would like to benefit from the surplus food available but who find queuing difficult.

Please book an appointment here fb.com/book/littlehamptoncommunityfridge/ . Please do not come to collect a grab-bag until your appointment is confirmed. One grab-bag per adult please.

Please don’t embarrass our volunteers by turning up without booking a Grab-bag, or by being a regular fridge user who can queue on any of our other days for surplus food. 😊

See you there! #community #kindness #helpmorepeople #support ... See MoreSee Less

***We gave out over 70 grab bags tonight, well done and thank you all for helping save lots of food from going to waste ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Extra Random Grab bag Session Tuesday Evening*** Our Freezers are full again amongst other items, so we are pleased be doing an extra grab-bag session, open to all Tuesday Evening 12th January 6.30pm-7.30pm or until we run out of grab-bags whichever is sooner!

What you get will be a bag with random items, but likely will include freezer items.

Hopefully you won't need to queue too long in the cold and dark, and get some good items in your grab-bag. 1 grab bag per adult please.

We can probably do meat or a veggie option (if we have enough veggie and meat items), but won't be able to accommodate ever diet unfortunately, it really will be a mystery bag!

Wear a mask, social distance, and only come if you need to leave the house for food.
