Chartham Pantry

Times are financially hard at the moment, and many are struggling.

We provide food parcels and toiletries for individuals and families who are struggling to make ends meet in this financially difficult time.

The service is completely free, and is run by volunteers from The City Church in Canterbury.

How it works

Every Tuesday is parcel pick up day.

All you need to do is click on the collection day below and fill in the form. You’ll need to do this by the Monday evening so we can prepare your parcel for you.

You can let us know in the form how many are in your household so that we can cater the parcel for you.

On Tuesday morning you can come and collect your food parcel between 10:30am - 11am from Under 1 Roof, Ashford Rd, Chartham, Canterbury CT4 7HB

For special circumstances (e.g. for people who are housebound or unable to get to Under 1 Roof) we may be able to deliver. Just let us know in the form, and we’ll be in touch to see if we can help.

(Please note that the sign up forms for Tuesday collections refresh every Wednesday morning).
