Story

We have seen firsthand how tough this year has been for our families and community members. At times we have been required to shut our doors but have continued to offer support through online sessions, mentoring, phone calls, cooked meals and a food bank.

Part of our COVID response was to quickly set up a mobile food bank, delivering essentials and fresh food to our local community. Thanks to our amazing team of staff, volunteers and the support of our funders, the scheme has run since April. Twice weekly, we deliver food bags and hot meals to families and individuals most in need, the elderly and those self-isolating. We also have bags of food available that can be collected from our door. We've helped well over 200 families and community members through the food bank.

Over Christmas, as well as getting essentials to them, we would like to spread some cheer by providing hampers containing festive treats and gifts. We would love you to support our scheme and wish our community a Happy Holiday Period.
