The Govanhill People’s Pantry is a membership based community food shop that provides good quality food at a subsidised rate.
With many of the families using the People’s Pantry having to choose between heat and eat, fresh produce, with a limited shelf life, is often absent in their homes. The Panty often struggles to provide a range of fresh fruit and veg to supplement the basic store cupboard items on offer.
Giving Glasgow made a £500 donation which will provide a significant amount of fresh fruit and veg for the 370 households that use the People’s Pantry, making a significant improvement to the diet and health of those least able to afford to fill a ‘healthy eating’ shopping basket.
