For those in need of support with food, we offer the following services...
Food parcels and hot meals
There are a couple of options for those seeking support with food at zero cost.
To be referred to our Food Bank service and receive a week's worth of food supply, please speak to any support staff you may have. Alternatively, please contact Nottingham City Council's Welfare Rights team to explain your needs (Tel: 0115 915 1355).
As well as this, we offer weekly hot meals through Salaam Shalom Kitchen, where anyone is welcome to join and eat-in or take their food home.
We greatly appreciate food donations, which can be made from Monday to Thursday, between 10am and 4pm.
If dropping off, please bring to our location at: Unit 4 & 5 Forest Court, Gamble Street, Nottingham, NG7 4EX. If there's a larger volume that needs collecting, please give us a call.
