ZOLA'S STORY

“My story with Christian Kitchen started with my husband passing away suddenly and unexpectedly. The State Pension stops, DWP say no benefits or work coach for 5 weeks, and I’m out of everything.

I googled for help – up comes Christian Kitchen. The listing says: 3 course hot meals. 7 days a week. 365 days a year. For those in need. When I arrive, they give me tea & biscuits, then hot soup, spaghetti bolognese, rolls, cake, and chocolate.

Every night of the year, they give a hot meal to anyone who asks and is in need. What would happen to really desperate people without them? All the workers are volunteers, and give their time freely to help others. I really can’t speak highly enough of Christian Kitchen.”

Donate food

Because we cook with your food donations every day, we can accept fresh produce alongside the more commonly donated tinned and dried goods. Learn about the food we can accept and the regular food swops we participate in to create a healthy, balanced 3-course meal every day.
