Here's a ground update from one of our incredible volunteers working in Calais. We're currently serving around 1200 portions of food a day to displaced people in Calais and Dunkirk. Plus an extra 1000 meals every Thursday in Brussels.
WE REALLY NEED VOLUNTEERS! So please join us if you have some spare time! Send an email to refugeecommunitykitchen@gmail.com to see how you can get involved.
Please spread the word & donate what you can!
Happy New Year! Wishing everyone a healthy, joyful year full of good food! 💗🎉🍽️🎉💗
We've started bringing hot food to Brussels once a week on a day when no other association was able to support the 600+ people living rough there.
Big thanks to all of the groups that are already working hard to provide aid to displaced people in Belgium, including Deux Euros Cinquante, whose volunteers help us serve food weekly.
We are committed to providing food with dignity and respect wherever it's needed.
Please share & donate as we rely on your donations to keep hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of hot meals coming out daily!
On this day we remember refugees fleeing persecution and death for their sexuality and gender ❤️💙💚💛💜 #transdayofremembrance

We are currently providing an estimated 1500 people with hot, wholesome meals in Calais and Dunkirk. This requires a huge amount of food and work!
Please share & donate what you can so that we can continue providing food without judgement.
The authorities estimate that today they evicted 1800 people, or over 400 families, who were living rough in Dunkirk.
Our team is working hard to support people through the upheaval and destruction as best as we can. We've packed 700 'bentos' to give out so that people can take food with them as needed.
Please support these displaced people as they face further destitution!
Big thanks to Tilda Basmati Rice's great crew for helping out in the kitchen.
Is your company looking for a good cause to contribute to? Can you and your coworkers get behind our mission of serving nourishing, hot food to displaced people?
Sponsored sports events, company parties, fundraising dinners, food / hamper collections, volunteer trips to Calais/RCK London and other company-wide fundraising activities are a great way to satisfy corporate responsibility requirements, boost public relations and provide your employees/teammates with a truly gratifying experience.

Yesterday we served 1300 hungry people, including 60 families, who are all sleeping in the woods with no cover.
The temp dropped to 6°C last night and we are already worried about the dangerous winter weather that's right around the corner.
We will soon be serving over 2000 meals a day, as numbers in Calais and Dunkirk are on the rise and we need your help to keep going!
Please share & donate what you can!
