Affordable meal
We assume that you can do your shopping and cook yourself. But that is not obvious to everyone and eating together tastes better. That is why we have provided an overview below of the options available to get a meal if you need help or want to organize something yourself.
Free food to cook yourself if you have financial problems
Food Bank Woerden offers emergency aid in the form of free food for people in financial difficulties. Free food packages are distributed weekly from the distribution point. The contents of the packages differ per week, depending on the offer of the suppliers. This distribution point is possible thanks to local volunteers. Contact Food Bank Woerden if you want to know more.
eat in the neighborhood
There are more and more opportunities to eat together in the neighborhood. These options are included in the activity overview .
Would you like to organize an activity yourself to cook and eat together with other Ukrainian refugees? Awesome! Contact the Corinna Mitrovich (neighborhood connector at Gro-up) for more information. You can reach her at: corinna.mitrovitch@gro-up.nl .
