Fareham Borough Council Supports Community Pantries

Fareham Borough Council is helping to promote the good work of three community pantries which have opened across the Borough to help support local people.

Registration to a community pantry allows residents to get their groceries and provisions once a week at a fraction of the cost. The recommended donation is £5.00 per visit and customers will then receive a minimum of £15 worth of food, including fresh and frozen items, toiletries and household items.

There are three community panties at the following locations:

1. Waypoint Community Hub- ideal for residents living in West of the Borough
