'A long-term solution to food poverty' - New pantry opens in city centre
THE Salisbury Pantry has now opened in its permanent new home in the city centre.
Organised by the city council’s Communities Team, the pantry was originally operating out of the Friary Community Centre and Bemerton Heath Centre, with the support of Anybody Can Cook.
It has now moved to Catherine Street - where the the old lighting workshop used to be - and has been open to new and existing members since Tuesday (April 20).
The Communities Team are now running the shop as part of a franchise operation run by Church Action on Poverty called ‘My Local Pantry’ who help people set up food shop based-schemes in their area.
