The Blue Base Pantry also hosts a monthly job fayre (run by the DWP), they also have Housing & welfare support, the credit union and smoke free Liverpool in attendance each week. Everyone also has the chance to have free toast, teas, and coffees in the building before they complete their shop at the market outside.
- Community Shop on Walton Road: https://www.feedingliverpool.org/community-shop-walton/. This is open every day and has heavily discounted food on offer – it’s set out like a supermarket so people complete their own shop with no limits on what can be purchased. Membership is free but families must be on low-income. They also have the café upstairs which has lots of social groups and hot £1.50 meals each day (children always eat free). If you follow them on Facebook they update their page regularly… https://www.facebook.com/groups/communityshopwaltonroad/?locale=en_GB.
