DONATING
St John’s Soup Kitchen costs approximately £1,500 a week to run. There are a number of ways that you can support the work of the Soup Kitchen and we would be grateful for any help you can give us in supporting our community.
Justgiving
https://www.justgiving.com/stjohnskitchen
Our Justgiving page allows you to donate financially towards all aspects of our soup kitchen work, such as food and hygiene essentials for food bank parcels, ingredients for cooking, packaging for serving hot meals, cleaning, pest control, rent and utility bills.
Bankuet
If you would like your money just to go towards the contents of our food bank parcels, please consider using our Bankuet page. Bankuet are able to use bulk purchasing and they deliver the food weekly to our doors.
Donating Food
We accept donations of all non-perishable goods (you can find a list of the things we often need on the food bank page). Please only bring donations to the church building when volunteers are there to receive them. Please don’t leave donations outside our doors as they might not be taken inside straight away.
Sundays 11am – 2pm
Tuesdays 5pm – 8pm
Donating Clothing
We accept certain clothing items, for example t-shirts, jumpers/hoodies, jackets, shoes. Warm and practical clothes, especially for men, are in high demand. We do not have laundry facilities, so please only donate clean clothes.
Please email volunteering@stjohnskitchen.org.uk for more information.
