Starting from 22 September, Campus Services is providing free ingredients for students, to help with the cost of living.

The food will be available in the two Community Larders, located on campus by Fresh, and The Virgil Building cafe area - new for this year.

The initiative is due to the ongoing success of the Community Larder, which has prevented thousands of items from going to waste.

The larder has secured funding from the Advancement Office, so that each week, the following ingredients will be available for free:

  • Rice
  • Baked beans
  • Lentils
  • Oats
  • Tinned tomatoes

Take a look at our recipes for inspiration of how to use these ingredients to prepare healthy, tasty meals on a budget.

As well as improving your culinary skills, cooking together is a great way to get to know your new housemates, and save money.
