Membership

Good Food member agencies receive regular deliveries of food, bi-annual advisory visits to the premises of each member and food safety information. We also offer accredited Food Hygiene/Food & Health training at a discounted members rate, regular food and health bulletins and fast track referrals to our cooking classes & placement/trainee schemes. Members are also able to refer clients to us for an emergency food parcel.

Membership fees are tailored to ensure that every organisation will make a significant saving in respect of food costs as well as the additional benefits provided through this scheme. All the fees received by the Good Food project go straight back into the service - going some way to increase the sustainability of the project.
For further information about becoming a Good Food member and receiving these benefits please contact us.

Comments from Good Food Members:

"The guys are always perfect gentleman with deliveries and you have increased the variety of food we have available - thanks!" Open Doors

"A person arrives with no money or food and Cyrenians Good Food allows us to supply the person with enough food until benefits etc are sorted out" Mary Sandison, Quentin Court

"The delivery from Cyrenians allows us to offer variety 'treats' etc, which our budget might not otherwise allow us to buy. Smoothies, confectionary, exotic fruits, bottled water and fruit juices are a few examples" Jericho House

"The service users benefit from good food at the drop-in groups on Thursdays. The group has reduced isolation and given men new friends. The food provided has been a good catalyst in getting men together and talking" Tom Gilfillian, Bethany Supported Housing

"We had a client who was applying for indefinite leave to remain in the UK on the grounds of domestic abuse. This client had no access to public funds and she had little money. It's was a great help for her to get a food parcel from the Good Food Project as it helped her to get through a challenging time" Manuela Rolle, Shakti Women's Aid

"Able to supply more food of better quality" Sister Alered Timmins, St Catherine's Homeless Project
