At the moment the Lambourn Lunch Club is open just one day a week. It would be amazing if we could open the Warm Welcome at least one more day.
The cost of living crisis is impacting many people who are having to make difficult decisions between food or fuel. Lambourn is a rural community built up around the racehorse training industry with limited public transport to the nearest town which is 9 miles away.
The Lambourn Lunch Club is an initiative started by the Lambourn Community Interest company which also operates the Lambourn food bank on a not-for-profit basis.
The Lunch Club provides a safe, warm place to meet and have a free meal for those who are struggling with the cost of living. It is there to provide social contact, a warm meal in an environment where no-one judges or comments.
The initiative is based in entirely around volunteers and it's all about harnessing the power of the community. It does require funding to pay for the hot meals and the rental of the hall.
