The CWIN Food Hub distributes food for our community in a way that increases choice and dignity in the process. We don't hand out food parcels; instead, the food hub is similar to a pantry, where people can chose what they want to take home.
By paying a small weekly membership fee you can take home between 5 and 20 kg of food. The membership fee enables us to bulk purchase items that are rarely donated and we can offer our members culturally relevant food.
Please note that if you are in hardship, you can always talk to us about accessing the hub without paying the fee.
Most of the food in the hub is supply chain surplus, saved from landfill. We donate around 1 ton of food a week, and we have been running the our food security programme since 2012.
We are always happy to receive donations of food, household goods and toiletries for the food hub.
