Story
Covid 19 made us realise as a community two things, one many feel isolated and lonely struggling with day to day activities as well as human interaction. Two some areas of Looe are in worst 20% for child poverty and Looe and Polperro are heavily dependent on the tourism sector. Tourism is one sector most effected by the pandemic with some businesses facing total lockdown twice, laying off staff or putting them on short time. There is also a high proportion of self employed in Looe adversely effected by the loss of trade from the tourism sector supply chain. Some people in Looe and Polperro, even in a good year, face hardship with a seasonal economy and low paid service industry jobs. Therefore we wanted to help with the food poverty needs of the community, providing recipients who have either limited cooking facilities to produce a hot, nutritious healthy meal, have limited income because of redundancy because of Covid 19, at the end of seasonal employment or find cooking difficult because of disability or infirmary. We run a confidential service treating people with the dignity they deserve, we are here to help. The scheme currently provides tray bakes like cottage pie, a roast, lasagne, vegetarian options, a roast twice a week and even a fish supper takeaway twice a week.
