Berkshire, UK 10 December 2022 – The Lambourn Junction Community Interest Company has received a £1000 grant from Berkshire Community Foundation in its latest round of funding.
The money will go towards funding the “Lambourn Lunch Club” (Formerly Lambourn Warm Welcome) which provides a warm and welcoming place with a free of charge lunch once per week for those who are challenged by the current cost of living crisis. The Lunch Club also delivers lunches to those who cannot attend the lunches in person.
Helen Noll, Organiser of the Lambourn Lunch Club, said: “The generous grant from Berkshire Community Foundation will allow us to provide hundreds of hot and nutritious meals free of charge to those who need a helping hand at this difficult time.”
Jon Yates, CEO of Berkshire Community Foundation, said: “At Berkshire Community Foundation, we work to enable vibrant, caring and resilient communities by directing philanthropic funds towards charities that perform vital functions for local people. We are delighted to support The Lambourn Community Interest Company in its important work and look forward to the positive impact enabled by this grant.”
If you would like to join us next week, please give Helen a call 07770 394 123 to book in – sitting around a table over lunch listening to folks chat. No pressure, no judgement just good company and a delicious hot meal followed by tea and coffee and cake!
