We are a women's centre in Torbay, supporting women who have fled domestic abuse. This is through 1:1 emotional support sessions, various trauma and Freedom group Programmes, community walks, food parcels. We are now branching out and are open and providing a community fridge in our local area, to save food and feed our community. We operate from our building on Winner Street, Paignton. We are open as a Community Fridge currently every Monday and Tuesday between 10-2, with plans to be open more days come September. This is a open door policy, to give our users their dignity. We are set up as a 'proper' shop, and charge £4 per 12 items of users choice. We are collecting from Fareshare UK each Friday in Exeter, and rely on donations from the public which we aquire using our Instagram following platform which is @thepatchworkhousecic At the Pantry we have a mental health first aid, emotional support trained manager who has access and knowledge to many services to signpost in our local area and who is there every day if users need someone to talk to. We feel very strongly for saving the planet, and stopping food from going to waste, alongside stopping children and people going hungry

"At the Pantry we have a mental health first aid, emotional support trained manager"
And who the fck is this clown?
Imagine going to Winner Street and getting the mental health support that the NHS cannot provide, because of lack of funding and other problems.

A guided tour of Winner Street and beyond?
And she's saving the planet too.
Obviously
