Paulsgrove Food Pantry

💚 PROUD OF OUR TEAM! 💚

Well done to the WHOLE team, including Tara, Aimee and Bella for completing their Food Allergen Awareness and Food Health & Safety Levels 1 & 2 certificates! 🎓👏

Keeping our pantry safe and our customers looked after. 💚

Go team! 🥰

🎉💚 WELL DONE, OUR LUCY! 💚🎉

A little shout-out today for our lovely Lucy, who has been busy completing her training and has now got her certificates to prove it! 👏📚

Lucy has completed training including Food Safety & Hygiene levels 1 & 2, and Food Allergen Awareness, helping make sure we continue to run Paulsgrove Food Pantry safely and responsibly for everyone who comes through our doors.

We know courses and certificates aren't the glamorous side of pantry life, but they're an important part of what goes on behind the scenes, and we're really proud of her for getting them done. 💚

Well done, Lucy! Another job ticked off and smashed. 🌟

🌿 We were delighted to welcome Amanda Martin MP, Member of Parliament for Portsmouth North, to Paulsgrove Food Pantry today.

It was a wonderful opportunity to show Amanda around the pantry, talk about the work we do within our community, and share just how much the pantry has grown and developed.
Most importantly, we were able to talk about the people at the heart of it all: our customers, our volunteers and the incredible community that continues to support us. ❤️

Amanda took the time to listen, ask questions and learn more about the realities of running a busy community food pantry and the work that goes on behind the scenes to keep it going.

A huge thank you to Amanda for taking the time to come and visit us. We really appreciated the genuine interest she showed in our work and in the Paulsgrove community.

It was an absolute pleasure to have you with us. 💚

💚 A HUGE THANK YOU TO PAUL 💚

Last week we completely ran out of egg boxes and asked our lovely community if anyone had some spare.

Well, look what happened! 🥰
Last night, Paul popped down to Paulsgrove Food Pantry with an incredible 100 egg boxes for us.

This is such a massive help. We give out a lot of eggs each week, and having enough boxes to safely hand them out makes a real difference to our volunteers and customers.

Paul, thank you so much for taking the time to purchase these and bring them down to us. 100 boxes is absolutely amazing and we genuinely appreciate it. 💚

Thank you, Paul. You're a star. 🌟💚

🍬💚 A SWEET LITTLE THANK YOU! 💚🍬

A huge thank you to the lovely Madalynn from Sweets by Mads, who popped down with sweetcones for all of our volunteers! 🥰🍭

Such a thoughtful surprise and a very welcome treat for all our volunteers 💚

Thank you so much, Madalynn. What a little star! 🌟
