OUR CLUB CHARITY 2022-23
We’re pleased to confirm 'Purley Food Hub' is our Captains’ chosen charity for 2022-23

Purley Food Hub is an emergency food bank set up in January 2013 by ‘Churches Together’ in Purley & Kenley to help local people in crisis.  It became a registered charity with elected Trustees in July 2013.  Since then, they have provided over 250,000 meals to more than 28,000 clients and family members in need.

Clients are referred to the Food Hub by agencies and professionals across Croydon borough including jobcentres, teams and departments of Croydon Council, hostels and refuges, children’s centres and schools, mental health services and a wide range of voluntary organisations.

They provide clients and their families with enough tinned and other non-perishable food for three meals a day for three days.

Purley Food Hub is run entirely by volunteers – they currently have around 150, from local churches and the community.  Food is donated by churches, schools, businesses, uniformed groups, community organisations like the Rotary Club and Women’s Institute and many families and individuals.

They also work closely with local voluntary organisations, particularly the two Food Stops at Old Lodge Lane Baptist Church in Purley and St Francis Church, Monks Hill, Selsdon.  Clients don’t need to be referred to go to a Food Stop. These are open on Fridays and visitors are able to choose around £20 of fresh and frozen food and non-perishable items for a payment of £3.50.

As well as providing food and toiletries they also offer individual help and advice through a team of Client Support Volunteers, who work alongside colleagues at the Food Hub and also at the Purley Food Stop.

We hope all members will support this very worthwhile cause.

Thank you

Sue & Tony
Captains

THANKS FROM PURLEY FOODHUB

Thank you very much indeed for the first two donations the Food Hub has received from Purley Bowls Club, totalling £482.59.  We are most grateful, especially in these increasingly hard times for so many families.

Yesterday (Saturday) our volunteers packed and delivered food parcels for 81 adults and children in Purley and the surrounding area, a total of 729 meals, and we are expecting this coming Wednesday to be busier still.

 With our thanks and best Christmas and New Year wishes to you all.
