About Feeding Coventry
Feeding Coventry is a small charity with a big mission: to create a resilient community where no one goes hungry.
When people come to us, they’re often dealing with a host of complex life challenges which can include financial difficulties, mental or physical ill health, isolation, language barriers, parenting struggles and other problems.
That’s why we work with members to provide a range of support to help address the issues that led them into food poverty.
Our work focusses on the following provision:
· Social supermarket
· Advice and support
· Wellbeing activities
Our community centre offers a space to grow friendships and build inter-community support networks.
Finding solutions to long-term complex problems, our members become part of a diverse thriving community in a safe and trusted space.
