Foodbank
Foodbank is an exciting new venture that The Oak feels called to embark upon. The best way to understand what Foodbank is and how it operates is to look at the video below produced by The Trussell Trust
Our vision is to establish a Foodbank that feeds those in greatest need in the surrounding area, expresses the love of God in word and deed and enables churches to mobalise together to alleviate poverty in Orpinton and the Crays area. The Oak Community Church is working in partnership with The Trussell Trust to join with them in their network of over 45 Foodbanks across the country. We are also looking to establish this as concern that many churches in the surrounding area can all be involved in.
We launched "Foodbank Orpington" during Easter 2010, we are operating from a local shop premises in Tillingbourne Green. Further details can be seen on the Orpington Foodbank website (www.orpingtonfoodbank.co.uk).
