At Emmeline’s Pantry we are passionate about people making their own choices and we never discriminate against need.
Emmeline’s Pantry is led by a dedicated group of women and supporters who started out in a hallway, providing clothes to women. We are constantly expanding and nearly ten years on our foodbank now provide food, clothes, toiletries and baby items to women in need and their families.
We are a women only food bank. We offer fresh food to ensure healthy eating. We give service users a choice of food, we never pre-bag.
