Nourishing connections: The Epsom and Ewell Food Bank and Health and Wellbeing Hub
Operating within the neighbourhoods of Epsom and Ewell is the Food Bank and Health and Wellbeing hub, one of the various Pulling Together projects.
Following the local Foodbank moving to St Barnabus Church, Epsom and Ewell residents can now benefit from what is quickly becoming a hub for the local community to access the support of various services.
Watch Founder of Good Company Surrey, Jonathan Lees, explains in our video how, with a growing number of partners attending the hub, from Health, VCSE organisations and Housing Associations, we are pulling together to create a well-known community hub to offer residents support, without creating a dependency.
If we’re all under the same roof, working in partnership, we can meet needs there and then for individuals.

This programme has bought key partners together under one roof, enabling better collaborative working, alongside strengthened working relationships and a growing number of partners, benefitting for residents and for service providers’ own learning.
