John Anderson Resilience Group Coordinator Resilience Group Larder Update 09/05/2021
A big thanks to all the 21 volunteers of the larder, for their hard work in getting the larder up and running.
We had a visit from Paul Birnie of Paul Birnie Electrical, Castle Street who presented Karen Forsyth, our Larder Coordinator, with a cheque for £503.50, which was part of a raffle that Paul held for local good causes. A huge thank you to Paul for this.
The larder has been open for 5 weeks, which is a total of 20 hours (4 hours a week). We have 40 members and we are supporting 70 adults and 33 children. In week 1 we had 9 customers, and this has increased to 28 customers in week 5.
The feedback we are getting from members so far has been very positive. We will be capping the membership at 50, then we will assess which type of food is required, how popular the larder is, then we may open longer or add a new day.
