A Sheffield Community Hub will receive a \u00a31600 grant from the council to support local residents in the new year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapel Green Community Hub<\/a>, based in High Green, runs a Community Fridge which works to distribute food to local residents and raise the importance of not wasting food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The North Local Area Committee grant of \u00a31600, taken from the Great North Fund, will go towards the running costs of the Hub and more services to local residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angela Woodward, lead of the Community Hub and Fridge, said: \u201cThe funding will allow us to extend our services and continue to support social isolation and vulnerable families in East and West Ecclesfield.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOn a weekly basis we save at least one ton of food going to landfill.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The food is collected by a team of volunteers who take it from local supermarkets to distribute to local residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Community Fridge also works with a company called ReFood<\/a>, who collect any food they don\u2019t give away to turn into fertiliser for farmers and electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are also other initiatives run by the Community Hub and Fridge which will benefit from the grant money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Community Fridge currently runs a \u2018warm space\u2019 for members so they can wait to collect food in a warm space, something that the Community Fridge hopes to continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs Woodward said: \u201cMembers waiting can have a warm drink and hot food while they wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis ensures they can have at least one hot snack and drink on Saturdays.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hub also wants to reinstate the \u2018Warm Coat Initiative\u2019 they started last year, where people can swap or donate their old coat for a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs Woodward said that when this initiative was launched last year, 52 coats were redistributed in the first two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hub also has a shop for clothes next to the fridge where people can donate clothes. It hopes to encourage members to adopt more recycling with an \u2018upcycling sewing initiative.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs Woodward said: \u201cOur members can be taught how to sew and adapt old clothes, to be fashionable again with minimum or no cost.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
