Marketplace: How It Works
Each SCM Marketplace will be accepting members from the specific geographical area around it. Local people can apply to become members regardless of their situation in life, if they would like to join and feel like it would be beneficial. There is no referral system for the SCM Marketplace.
The local catchment area is important in building community relationships and provides an element of commonality and sense of togetherness to these food clubs. Click here to view details of our current Marketplace venues.
Having got in touch with SCM and filled out a membership form, new members will be invited for a membership chat and receive copies of the membership agreement and relevant policies.
For a weekly £5 membership subscription, Marketplace members can come on the day their Marketplace is open, use the members café, chat to members and volunteers, talk to any visiting advice agencies, and choose around 15 items from the fridges, freezers, fresh fruit and veg, bakery, ambient food products and toiletries.
