Food and Community Outreach

Food Parcel

We run year-round food parcel deliveries and collections to help families facing hardship access essential groceries, toiletries, and household items.

​

Our team works with local partners and volunteers to ensure no one is left behind, offering practical support where it’s needed most.

​

Follow us on social media for live updates on food collection locations and times. We operate across the Dartford and Bexley borough areas.

Soup Kitchen

Our Soup Kitchen project is dedicated to supporting our community by offering a welcoming space where individuals can enjoy a nutritious lunch and hot beverage.  Additionally, we will provide essential groceries and basic necessities for people to take home, addressing food insecurity and fostering a sense of community.

​

This project plays a vital role in tackling hunger and fostering a sense of community, especially during the colder winter months. It offers a welcoming space for individuals to connect and access essential support. You can be part of this impact  by volunteering to serve meals, helping organise grocery provisions, donating food or supplies, or simply sharing our mission with others.

In April 2025, we hosted our first Easter event at Temple Hill, Dartford. Families enjoyed free hot meals, groceries, an egg hunt, arts and crafts, digital activities, and health talks for parents.

We’re planning to return in Easter 2026 — with even more support and activities for local families. More details will follow soon.
