Food support at the hubs
Our Community Hubs work in partnership with Tapestry and Your Local Pantry, to run Community Food Pantries.
You can get more than £20 of food for just £6. The pantries offer good-quality food at a low cost. They can help you eat well and stay healthy. They also serve fresh meals.
At Rainham, the pantry is open on Thursdays from 10:30am to 12:30pm.
There’s no need to book – just drop in during the opening times and speak to one of our team or partners.
You can find more information about food pantries and other low-cost food options in Havering on our foodbanks, free food, and low-cost food page.
