The Follow Bless Collective (FBC) was launched in June 2016 and operates at Bourke Park in Pakenham. The Food Van aims to provide a hub for food and friendship for those in need in the local community. We provide meals for our guests as well as items such as clothing, toiletries and emergency food supplies.
We also work alongside Orange Sky who provide portable laundry facilities and Clean as Casper who provide portable showers. As a collective, we are able to support and meet the practical needs of those who are vulnerable, lonely and isolated in our community.
The Food Van is located at Bourke Park in Pakenham on alternate Tuesday and Thursday evening from 6pm – 8pm. Feel free to come along, say hello and see what the Bless Collective Food Van is all about!
Check our calendar for exact dates.
