“We will provide takeaway food for your family that aims to use ingredients found in the food parcels distributed by Morecambe Bay Foodbank and Eggcup.

“We will be providing free takeaway nutritious meals that can be simply microwaved and also recipe cards that will allow the families to replicate the meals at home.”

Any local resident with a young family can join the food club.
