City of Port Phillip Emergency food directory Introduction This directory is to help people who are having difficulty accessing food and grocery supplies and resources for City of Port Phillip Businesses during the current COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions. As well as information about local shops and supermarkets, the directory also includes information about emergency food relief. For people who can’t shop in person because of existing conditions or isolation measures, some shops and supermarkets are offering additional services and deliveries. Council is continuing to operate many of our services for eligible members of our community, such as the elderly or people with disability. There are also several community organisations which are providing free meals, food parcels and vouches. If you notice friends, family or neighbours in your community who require extra assistance, we encourage you to stay connected and support them safely. 3
