Ashton Central Mosque Foodbank is excited to announce a new chapter!
With your support over the past 15 months we have supported over 1000 people!
For the past couple of months we have been working closely with ‘Halifax Community Fridge’ to help build a network of community fridges nationwide.
We’re now rebranding our foodbank to
Ashton Community Fridge
joining a nationwide network of community fridges dedicated to reducing food waste and supporting our communities.
Our fridge will continue to be open to everyone in the community, regardless of faith or background.
No referral needed, no questions asked.
What does this change mean for you?
More Accessibility
Our community fridge will start to open more frequently.
Expanded Offerings
We’ll be able to provide a wider range of fresh food items, including fruits, vegetables, and dairy products as well as the current offerings of long life food items, toys, books, clothes, baby essentials and household items.
Pantry
This is a table of essentials that is available within the mosque community hall whenever the mosque is open, available for anyone to take whenever needed.
Pet Foodbank
Free cat and dog food for anyone in need.
Increased Impact
By joining the national network, we can share best practices and collaborate with other community fridges to make a bigger difference.
Much more to come..
We invite you to be a part of this exciting transformation!
