Summer Closure – Important

 

Please note that we are closed for three weeks to do some important maintenance work at the hub. Our final full session will be Friday July 26th 2024. We will be closed from Monday July 29th through to August 16th 2024.

We will be open on a Thursday morning from 10am to 12noon during these three weeks for emergency food parcels only. The cafe is closed during these dates.

What We Do

The Crossroads Community Hub started during the Coronavirus pandemic by delivering emergency food parcels to those in need. We have extended this to try and bring hope as well as affordable food alongside emergency provision.

Crossroads Community Hub and Cheshire West Voluntary Action (CWVA) are now working together to run the Greenway Grocer, a project that delivers affordable fruit and vegetables using a bike along the Greenway cycle path.

Food Parcels

 

Monday, Thursday, Friday

If you, or someone you know, would like a food parcel, follow the instructions here (which can also be found in the main menu under ‘what we do’). In particular, you need to get a Foodbank referral code before picking up your food.

We deliver emergency food parcels to those in need, working with West Cheshire Foodbank.

Monday: we’re open for packing and delivery between 12noon and 3pm.

Thursday and Friday: we’re open alongside our cafe for people to collect their food.

Greenway Grocer

Our Greenway Grocer project is delivering fresh fruit and vegetables using a bike. The bike will use the Greenway cycle path to visit different areas of Chester, taking healthy food to people in their own communities. This way, we aim to become a trusted source of affordable fruit and vegetables (which are provided by Hoole Food Market).
