Groceries feeling harder to afford lately? You’re not alone.
The cost of living has changed what a normal grocery shop looks like for many Ipswich families. 🛒
Maybe you’re working, but the bills still keep stacking up.
Maybe rent, fuel, school costs or medication are taking priority.
Maybe you’ve found yourself putting items back at the checkout and wondering how you’ll make it through the week.
If that sounds familiar, Goodness Enterprises Limited is here to help.
Our Community Food Co-op at 50 Coal Road, Tivoli Drive-In Site, Chuwar provides practical, dignity-focused grocery support for people and families across Ipswich and West Moreton.
Ipswich is home to more than 250,000 people, and an estimated 10% to 20% of residents may experience food stress or cost-of-living hardship at any given time. That means thousands of local households are facing the same pressure. You are not the only one. ❤️
This is not about judgement.
This is not about shame.
This is about community looking after community.
At Goodness Enterprises, our doors are open to the public, and our focus is simple: helping people access essential groceries with care, respect and dignity.
When you visit, you’ll find:
• Affordable access to essential grocery items
• A welcoming, non-judgmental environment
• Local support for Ipswich and West Moreton residents
• A community food co-op model built around dignity
• Practical help for families, pensioners, singles, workers and people doing it tough
• A place where asking for help is okay
Food stress can happen to anyone. A job loss, a rent increase, an unexpected bill or a tough season can quickly make the basics harder to cover.
You don’t have to wait until things get worse.
You don’t have to feel embarrassed.
You don’t have to carry it alone.
If groceries are becoming a stretch, come and connect with Goodness Enterprises Community Food Co-op in Chuwar. 🌱
We’re here to offer practical support, local care and a little breathing room when you need it most.
