Need food relief? Here's a guide to who's offering what, when and where?
Our local services have been hard at work mobilising to help the 2037 community. With the COVID-19 lockdown, we realised that a lot of community members could be affected by isolation, unemployment and financial strain, and mental and physical health concerns. Below are the food relief options available in the Glebe area. If you’re unsure or have any questions, you can contact the services directly, they’re always happy to hear from you.
