Sharing with the community

2022

Last summer we began a small community pantry and book exchange project in the porch of our church in Shrewton. The pantry was for garden produce and proved hugely popular. This year once the weather had settled down, we brought the pantry out again, but this time we’ve added toiletries and all kinds of food supplies- whatever people can offer, hopefully to support and assist anyone who may need that extra something. Our book store has expanded too, with books for children, for adults and now books in Russian for our Ukrainian guests. Working in partnership across the village, we hope to expand still further in coming months, and move the pantry to a more permanent and weatherproof location.
