Eggcup community food hub, 13-15 Chapel St, Lancaster, Lancashire, England, UK, LA1 1NZ
Eggcup is about food, people and community. Activities - how the charity spends its money Intercept surplus food; organise buying cooperative of staple foods; provide training to volunteers; support neighbourhood groups in setting up and running food clubs; provide infrastructure, guidance and support to local food organisations; provide food club services for the benefit of people on low incomes in a manner that support community wellbeing and integration. Eggcup stops surplus food from going to waste and gets it to people instead. Our low-cost, weekly food scheme helps our members to save money on food, and that makes life more affordable for those in our community on a tight budget. We have two Community Food Outlets for our members, one in Lancaster and one in the West End of Morecambe. We have a professional 5* food warehouse at our Lancaster base. Most of the work in our warehouse and outlets is done by volunteers who want to contribute to building a stronger community and making good use of surplus food. Some of our volunteers are members – we’re all pulling together! We also run a low-cost Buying Cooperative, where we pool our collective buying power to get great discounts. The Buying Cooperative is for Eggcup members and for other community food organisations across the district.
