The objective of the soup kitchen is to increase awareness of homelessness in the community and health issues surrounding homelessness.

They sell soup donated by Brookfield restaurants including; Basilica, The Apple Daily, Churchill, Gazette, The Heritage and Primal Pantry.

Each cup of soup sells for $10 with funds raised go to assist Homeless Healthcare in delivering health services to homeless and marginalised people in our community.

Today’s soup choices were a vegetarian option of pumpkin, and a tasty Tom Kah Gai created by the team at The Apple Daily Bar & Eating House, plus there was the choice of some corn bread or a bread roll.

You can even pick up the recipe so you can make your own batch at home later.

The Homeless Healthcare Soup Kitchen is in Brookfield Place from 11am – 2pm this week.
