CONNECTING PEOPLE, FOOD, & SUPPORT
Lambeth Larder is a social enterprise, based in south London. We are not a food bank. We help connect local people in financial need to emergency food and other support. Please use this website to find help nearby. To find out more about our work, visit our About Us page.
The Directory
Our latest paper directory (Issue 8) is here! We have published 18,000 copies that we distribute across Lambeth. If you, or your group, would like paper copies, just get in touch. You can also download a copy below.
The Lambeth Larder Directory lists groups and services if you need help or know someone else who does. Our full directory is available online 365 days a year.
You can use The Directory to connect with local groups if you want to volunteer or donate too.
IN THESE UNCERTAIN TIMES, INFORMATION CAN CHANGE AT SHORT NOTICE. PLEASE CHECK BEFORE USING SERVICES LISTED HERE.
