The Northway Pantry welcomes volunteers who are willing to help with various tasks, such as sorting and packing food donations, organizing fundraising events, and distributing food to members. We offer a range of volunteering opportunities to suit different interests, skills, and availability.
If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please contact us.
In order for the Community Pantry to work we rely on donations from generous supporters. If you would like to make a donation, please take a look at our Suggested Donations List below to see what items are most needed.
Donations can be taken to The Northway Hub. For large donations, we can organise a local collection. Please use the Contact Us form if you have a large donation to give.

In addition we call out to anybody who maintains an allotment – Do you have any excess fruit and/or vegetables that you can donate to the Pantry? All donations can be dropped to The Northway Hub.
As you can imagine, running the pantry costs money. Any donation that can be made to help us towards these running and stocking costs would be hugely appreciated.
​
We are currently working on setting up a fundraising link, but if you'd like to donate sooner, please use the Contact Us form so that we can arrange this.
Set Up A Collection Point
Does your business want to help out the local community? You could consider setting up a Collection Point within your premises, and ask colleagues and customers to donate towards the Pantry. This is a great way to help out the local community. We have a poster below that you can save and print, to let people know what items are ideal to donate.
​
If you have a large number of donations and are local to Northway, we may even be able to arrange collection from you!
