BECOME A FRIEND OF THE LONG TABLE Cirencester
Like what we do? Help make it happen.
The Long Table’s work is only made possible by our Friends. The support of this dedicated group means everybody in our community can take a seat at the table and enjoy a nourishing homemade meal with others.
As we prepare to open our Cirencester restaurant, our experience at the Long Table in Stroud shows just how impactful this support can be. Last year we served 35,000 meals in the Long Table Stroud, and almost half of those were provided at below what it cost to make them, or at no cost at all. While many people regularly pay a little over what it costs, it was only with the support of our Friends that we were able to balance the books.
Since we started in 2018, we’ve seen our community strengthen and grow … to meet the growing demand for meals at our tables, we also need our Friends to grow. By signing up today, you will be playing a crucial part in making sure we can offer Pay As You Can meals in Cirencester from the very start.
As a Friend of the Long Table Cirencester here are ways that you can engage with the transformation we are delivering:
Stay informed with exclusive regular updates on our progress.
Get involved in our decision making and help us to shape what The Long Table will look like in the future.
Share your expertise and join projects specific to your skillset.
Have special Friends-first events every year.
Enjoy a meal on us, should you want one, when you visit.
When you become a Friend, you will have the option to sign up at £25 or £35 a month (or another amount that works for you). Currently, £35 a month equals one meal a week at The Long Table paid forward to someone who otherwise might be alone or hungry. If you are a business or an organisation and interested in our Friends programme, please email Will at will@thelongtableonline.com
We want nothing more than for people to come and eat together especially our Friends - as a Friend when you come to eat at the Long Table, please announce yourself as such at the counter and decide what, if anything, you would like to pay for your meal.
We hope you’ll be able to join our Friends and help reach more people in our community and beyond.
