EVI Pantry

Welcome to EVI Pantry

PLEASE NOTE: Due to an overwhelming response to EVI Pantry within the community, we have unfortunately reached our membership capacity. This means new applications will be placed onto our waiting list. We will be in touch as soon as a space becomes available. Please bear with us, and check this page for regular updates!

If you are a member and no longer intend on visiting the Pantry, please let us know.

We are delighted to have opened EVI Pantry this year – the first Your Local Pantry in Blaenau Gwent!

The Pantry shelves are stocked a with a wide range of top-quality food including fresh fruit and veg, frozen and chilled, meat and dairy, and long-life tinned and packaged. For just £4 per visit (payable by cash or card), you can choose 10 – 12 items from our shelves, plus fruit & veg, that would normally total up to £20 in the supermarket. Members can save up to £1,000 a year on shopping bills! Our friendly staff and volunteers are on hand to chat and help you with anything you need.

Anyone who lives in Blaenau Gwent can join our Pantry. You can join us for as long as you want, visiting every week or just occasionally – it’s up to you! Just be aware that Pantry membership is limited to one member per household and you must have been accepted as a member to shop. The £4 fee is reinvested straight back into the pantry to maintain food orders and services.

Get involved

We are in need of donations (food, toiletries & monetary) to help run and stock the Pantry. If you’re interested in supporting this exciting community initiative, email pantry@evi.cymru or pop in.

Let’s bring our community together at the EVI Pantry to soften the blow of high living costs, foster friendships, reduce food waste, and contribute to healthier, happier lives.
