Eastleigh community pantry

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

In the New Year, RCS Community Pantry will be opening on the ground of the Cable Works Building in Eastleigh.

The Pantry initiative is designed to support people with food deprivation, helping them to escape or move on from their current emergency with a ‘helping hand’ approach.

The RCS Pantry provides a holistic approach in servicing the needs of the community as it gives additional support on budgeting, wellbeing, adult learning and employment.
Food provided in the pantry will be fresh, frozen and general foods.

Each week there is a weekly meal deal provided with a recipe to help everyone have a wholesome meal.

Each member will be able to do a weekly shop at a small recommended donation charge of £5.00 per visit and receive a minimum of £15 worth of food.


The pantry has no restrictions on becoming a member. It is a simple and easy process by completing and returning the attached membership form to rcscommunitypantry@romsey.hants.sch.uk or by calling the pantry team on 01794522106.


Please note if emergency help is needed between now and the Eastleigh pantry opening, RCS can supply from the Romsey Pantry with collection at Cable Works.

Fareham Opportunities Fair 2019

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

Twenty-three voluntary and community groups set up stands at the One Community Summer Volunteer and Community Opportunities Fair on a blisteringly hot day – Friday 12 July – in West Street, Fareham. The Fair was to promote voluntary and community activity in the borough of Fareham and to engage with people out and about in the town centre.
Organiser Hayley Hamlett said,

“It’s a great way to meet people who might never have thought about volunteering before, or to let people know about the services and activities that might be useful to them or their family members.”

Colourful stands attracted passers-by, and groups including Trefoil Guild, Scouts, British Legion, Fareham Library, Open Sight, and others supporting disabled people and refugees, were able to speak to those who may not have been aware of them before.
