Beating Food Poverty - How to help
Donate to Truro Safe Donation Box for the homeless
Truro BID organises a Truro Safe Donation Box scheme for pope who want to
donate to helping the homeless in Truro. The boxes are located in Co-op,
Quintessential Truro, Wetherspoons, Tescos, Superdry, Sole Plaive, Newell’s
Travel and Cex Truro.
Money collected will go to St Petrocs who use it to help the homeless in Truro.
If your business would like to host a donation box contact
Sian.knights@trurobid.co.uk for more information.
Ideas to help the homeless
Instead of giving the homeless money which could potentially go
towards buying alcohol and drugs, perhaps a voucher from a cafe that does
not sell alcohol but hot drinks and cake would be a nice idea or you could buy
a meal from local business OYES fish and chip shop or OYES pizza restuarant.
Nourish Hub Truro
Community kitchens are great ways of creating
hubs of informal advice and support for the
community, creating a space where everyone can
share experiences or offer help when someone needs
it, offering immediate and longer term solutions, this
is the ethos behind Nourish Hub in Truro. Events take
place at Truro Cathedral Chapter House.
Bringing people together from different backgrounds, heal divisions and
dismantle a lot of preconceptions that people may not realise they have – all
through the power of a shared meal! For events coming up visit website:
