Getting the mini fridge up and running has been quite a challenge due to a number of factors all of which are just part of working together as a community. But we now have our sensors, and have been able to extend the food offering from the mini fridge on Thursdays to include frozen foods. These are being targeted through a local charity who work with families needing support to access food. These are families with young children who cannot get to other food provisions in the area, a delivery driver who works with the families on a regular basis has been provided by them. The funding we have received has allowed us to work together to reach more people.
We have also started to have young people coming in to help with the cooking, starting with James who did his scouts cooking badge, we now have serval young people coming to do their Duke of Edinburgh volunteering.
