Saving Eggcup!

Update (20th December 2024)

Funding secured to enable Eggcup's operation until end of April 2025 - Thank you!

Thank you so much for your generous support over the past month. We have be blown away by everyone’s generosity and for the way the community has pulled together around us to help in a whole variety of ways. Eggcup staff, trustees and supporters have been working behind the scenes to secure additional funding to help us through this crisis period. As well as the money raised through the Crowdfunder we have secured financial support from WEM and the city council. Your donations to the Crowdfunder really helped demonstrate how valued Eggcup and the work we do is.

Thanks to this we've taken the decision to close this crisis support Crowdfunder- thank you so much to everyone who donated.

Your donation along with the additional funding secured will enable us to operate until the end of April. This has provided us with breathing space to do more fundraising, review our operations and create an alternative business plan for the future. We have also had support in kind from local organisations such as Citizens Advice, CVS, Morecambe Food bank, Food Justice Partnership, FoodFutures, LESS, Blackpool Food bank, other food clubs and our two local MPs.

The future is still uncertain and donations to this Crowdfunder will go directly to cover core operating costs to help us through this crisis period. This will enable us to continue operating and supporting households with access to food through throughout winter.

Thank you again for your support.
