Who this task will support
Kingsgate Student Pantry
National research as well as student survey data from the university demonstrate a need to support students, many of whom are affected by the cost-of-living pressures. This first-come, first-serve weekly pantry charges only £5 for £25’s worth of food, personal hygiene and essential household cleaning items. Feel free to pop by for a tea or coffee whilst picking up your groceries, or tune into the live healthy budget cooking demonstrations and access the optional pastoral support and signposting to additional services available.

Very short notice but Kingsgate Student Pantry have asked for support on their last ever preparation session on Saturday. They run the student pantry on the Sunday but there’s much to do in advance of this and they’ve requested our help. Jobs will include getting the products ready for the pantry on Sunday - Bella will be at the task to give a full breakdown on how to help when you arrive.

This is a great GoodGym starter session so please come along if you want to try GoodGym and haven't already done so. We are a friendly bunch so please come and join us.

Kingsgate Church is next door to KFC and you can gain access by pressing ‘2nd floor’ on the intercom and asking for Bella.

How are you getting there?
