Tadley & District Community Association
Tadley Community Food Pantry
Since lockdown in April 2020 with the help of donations Tadley Community Food Pantry has been providing food parcels to those in need.
Tadley Community Food Pantry, located in The Link, Newchurch Road, Tadley has been designed to support those in need of a helping hand, struggling with food deprivation, and allowing them to escape any current emergencies.
The Pantry's goal is to help as many members of the community as possible and we welcome any donations from the public to help us achieve this goal and any donations will be ploughed back into the scheme to keep it running.
We are teamed up with Sainsburys, Lidl, Green Health Tadley and Basingstoke Community Food Link for both donations and short self-life products to try and tackle food poverty and help with food waste.
