Community fridges and pantries
We are aware that many households are struggling with the increased cost of food and essentials.
Many of our communities have set up community food pantries or pop up shops to make affordable food more accessible an reduce food waste.
If you would like to set up a new food project in your area, or are looking to grow an existing one, please contact the Food Partnership Team at Community Action Suffolk for advice and guidance to get started.
You could also donate or volunteer your time for an existing project. View a breakdown of the food projects in Suffolk.
Offer a warm space
A network of warm spaces has been developed across Suffolk, so that people can come together to chat in a warm and welcoming environment.
If you'd like to offer assistance, please visit the Rural Coffee Caravan's website.
Could you be a landlord?
Due to the current shortage of privately rented properties, finding an affordable place to live can be difficult for our residents.
If you have a spare room available - or an empty property - and are interested in becoming a landlord, our Central Suffolk Lettings team offer a no fee letting service. Our service can help you find a tenant.
