The Scottish Pantry Network
The Scottish Pantry Network is a community-led organisation that supports collaboration and knowledge-sharing among local community groups that run food pantries in Scotland.
The network promotes a model of redistributing surplus food to reduce food waste, while also providing affordable and healthy food to those in need.
The network encourages collaboration among its member pantries, providing support and training to help them operate more efficiently and effectively. This includes guidance on food safety, storage, and distribution, as well as opportunities for members to share best practices and learn from one another.
