Oasis Food Projects

We are understand that sometime we all have months that are financially hard, this has lead us to launch our own food pantry supporting the local community with food parcels. As well as other great food work happening throughout the year including cooking classes, slower cooker project and holiday food provision.

Community Pantry & Food Parcels

Oasis Hub South Grimsby team and volunteers are here to support with food parcel support . The Hub team allows people to be directly referred to access the food parcel scheme or via the academy or other services. If a student or family is identified as urgently in need of a food parcel due to difficult circumstances, the Hub is able to access support within 24 hours and have open sessions on Tuesdays and Friday, 10-12am were people can access donations fruit and vegetables from the community fridge.

 The Hub makes use of this service to provide emergency food assistance to families at both academies and within our community. The Hub also has a food pantry which allows families to donate items. The food pantry is there for those who are not eligible for the local community shop but are struggling with finances.
