At Lambeth Larder we are working to build a better-connected community that can support those of us in need. How do we do this?
Lambeth Larder’s mission is to increase local food and financial equality and empower our communities to thrive. We want to achieve fair food and financial systems, that centre on solidarity, empowerment, and choice.
Since we set up in 2017, we have witnessed the negative impacts of Brexit, the pandemic, benefits cuts, and the ongoing Cost-of-Living Crisis. Many of the people we support are struggling to pay for basics like food, travel, clothing, and fuel. Our goal is to make sure that anyone in financial need can find help to reduce their time in crisis.
97% tell us Lambeth Larder helps local people find out where to find emergency food and other support in times of need.
