A NEW community pantry and food bank will open its doors to County Durham residents next week. East Durham Rural Corridor Area Action Partnership (AAP), one of Durham County Council’s 14 AAPs, has donated more than £11,000 to the Coxhoe and Area Community Pantry. Targeting people in Coxhoe and its surrounding villages, the pantry aims to support residents in need and help to reduce food wastage by distributing surplus affordable food. The project has also received a £3,000 boost through the neighbourhood budgets of local councillors Stuart Dunn and Maura McKeon.
