ruffers Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 The Albrighton Community fridge provides food and other essentials to an average of 350 households per per week — that’s a total of over 900 adults and more than 450 children. The fridge offers fresh fruit and vegetables, hot meals, frozen meat, bread, tinned goods and a limited selection of toiletries and sanitary products. As winter comes along with the cost of living and energy cost crisis these numbers are expected to grow significantly.The fridge is open from 1pm to 4pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. It is staffed by volunteers and relies on donations of food and money from individuals, local groups and businesses. While demand is increasing week on week, donations are dwindling as businesses and local residents hit hard times themselves. In addition we are losing volunteers as people's circumstances change.How can you help?1.Donate foodYou can drop off items at Albrighton Community Fridge 37 Albrighton Road, London SE22 8AH any weekday from 10am-4pm.At the moment though we need volunteers to help sort the donations and serve them to our customers.
