MK Soup Runners

With immediate effect, the Stantonbury Group are removing the Library drop point from the Monday evening Soup Run.

For some weeks now we have been concerned with the behaviour and attitude of the group of lads, and following an incident last night when members of the Stantonbury Group were verbally abused, we have decided that enough is enough and will no longer stop at this point.

In particular, the instigators of the abuse will not be served by the Monday group at any venue under any circumstances.

We have decided in place of the Library stop, we will drop off any surplus sandwiches to the YMCA building in Central Milton Keynes, for distribution to the residents and in a small way at least we can be sure that those in real need are getting the help they deserve.

I’m sorry if this in any way impacts on the other Soup Run Evenings, but I must consider above all else the safety of the volunteers and this cannot in my opinion be guaranteed at this stop.
