Donate to
the pantry

At the Pantry we support between 90 and 130 low-cost shops every week. We have 320 approved members who shop with us regularly. Including the household size of all our members, we support over 700 people in the Salisbury area. To do this, we gather donated and grant funded food from a huge range of sources. We benefit from the generosity of many local people, groups and businesses, who collect food on our behalf and donate to the Pantry to support people who are struggling to manage rising costs.

If you can help in anyway with an individual donation, offering food gathered by your group or at your Harvest Festival, or if you are a business who may have surplus food, we would really appreciate your help.

We can accept:

  • Fresh produce
  • Tins and dried goods
  • Toiletries and household items
  • Pet food
  • Chilled and frozen items (from food businesses only)
