Community Pantry

The pantry welcomes residents from across Kirkstall ward, including Burley, Kirkstall, West Park and Hawksworth Wood.

Where: KVDT Community Hub, St Stephen's Church Hall, Norman Street, Kirkstall, Leeds LS5 3JN
Cost: £6 per week for approximately £40 worth of shopping
Who: Anyone living in the Kirkstall ward
More than just shopping…
"We want the Food Pantry to be somewhere people feel comfortable and welcome. It's not just about making food more affordable, it's about bringing people together and creating a real sense of community.
"Whether you're popping in for your weekly shopping, enjoying a cuppa in the café or joining the Hookers and Clickers for a bit of knitting, there will always be a warm welcome waiting for you."
