New Covent Garden Food Co. will be supporting the work of The Salvation Army this Christmas by featuring the church and charity's resettlement centre work and related welfare programmes

A piping hot bowl of fresh soup from New Covent Garden Food Co.

The company's December Soup of the Month - a tasty combination of chicken, vegetable and pearl barley - will support The Salvation Army's resettlement work. This includes social programmes that focus on food and nutrition, helping homeless people reintegrate into society by teaching them practical and essential life skills, which include nutrition, cooking and the importance of fresh food and a healthy diet.

Soup Kitchen Challenge

Before the soup is available in the shops, you are invited to host a Soup Kitchen Challenge to raise even more funds for The Salvation Army. It's easy to take part. Simply cook an authentic New Covent Garden Food Co. soup recipe to share with friends, family, work colleagues, or neighbours in return for a small (or large!) 'fee', which will then be donated to The Salvation Army.  

The recipes - including a flavoursome chicken broth and a hearty cauliflower and cheddar soup - are all simple to prepare.

All money raised through the Soup Kitchen Challenge will go directly to help people in The Salvation Army's nationwide network of resettlement centres and in supplementing the cost of providing meals, food parcels, Christmas presents and gifts to homeless and vulnerable people.  

Win!

The most interesting Soup Kitchen Challenge event we hear about will win a family weekend break to London, with a trip to one of the most famous carol concerts at the Royal Albert Hall. Just what you need to get you into the Christmas spirit!
