BECOME A MEMBER

Membership is FREE and is managed through their secure online database. Your privacy matters, they don't share your information with third parties. As a member, you will be entitled to visit the shop once a week to choose from the stock available. What you take home is your CHOICE. No pre selected boxed filled with things your household wont use. They don't discriminate by household size or income, we recognise that sometimes everyone needs a helping hand.

Membership is available to residents of West Moors, Three Legged Cross, Verwood, St Ives, St Leonards and Ferndown. Please contact them directly if you live out with this area and they would be happy to discuss your requirements. Members can also join in with fundraising, take part in development meetings, share views and ideas with them, and get involved as little or as much as you like!

VISITING THE SHOP
They look and feel like a normal supermarket shop, offering a dignified way to gain access to groceries without the need for a formal referral. Members pay £7 when they attend, to be eligible for at least 12 yellow items and 3 red items, as well as unlimited green items. This is approximately two shopping bags of food. Each member makes their own choice rather than have a preselected bag of food.

Items include:

• Fresh fruit & vegetables • Chilled and frozen items such as milk, meat, cheese and yoghurt • Bakery products • Store cupboard staples – pasta, rice, cereals, tinned food, tea and coffee • Hygiene products – soap, shampoo etc.

Download BanktheFood app and follow the Castleman Community Larder and other food banks in the area.

Food banks depend on generous donations from the local community, yet often they receive a surplus of some items and not enough of others. That's where BanktheFood comes in. The free app connects donors with food banks in real-time, letting shoppers know exactly what's needed as they shop.

BanktheFood is a charity helping food banks and food poverty organisations across the UK get the items they need to support their community.

It's a simple way to ensure your donations make the biggest impact.
