COVID-19 Update
We will continue our day to day operations at the Ardrossan Church of the Nazarene for as long as health or government advice allow. The Foodbank will still be open between 10am to 2pm Monday to Friday, and our Fareshare session will also continue on Thursday evenings between the hours of 4pm and 5pm.
New Community Larder Service Coming Soon
For a small weekly subscription, local residents will soon be able to join our discounted grocery shopping service and get access to free and discounted products including fresh fruit, home baked products and toiletries.

Our other projects
The Food Bank
Helping those in food crisis through the provision of a three-day supply of emergency food.
To be eligible you must possess a food voucher issued by one of our agency partners.
The Mobile Cinema
The cinema shows family-oriented movies at the church every Saturday at 6pm.
Admission is free and the proceeds from the sale of drinks and snacks go towards running our kids holiday meal club, MaMoI.
The Grub Club
The club operates on Tuesdays from 1pm.
Come along and help grow food in our polytunnel greenhouse, or learn how to raise flowers and vegetables.
Community Food
We have a delivery of perishable food every Thursday which is made available to anyone in the community.
It’s impossible to predict what we will have but it often includes bread, fruit and vegetables. You do not need a food voucher but you are welcome to make a small donation.
MAMOI
Make a Meal of It (MaMoI) operates during school holidays and aims to reduce child hunger and the financial stress for struggling households.
The Pantry
For a small weekly subscription of £4, members of the pantry will be able to buy discounted food, including fresh produce, store cupboard favourites, home-baked items, and toiletries.
Membership is open to anyone within a ten-minute walking distance of our premises.
