I have always believed in helping one another. I know first-hand how life can somethings throw a curved ball in one's way and in most cases you would need someone to stand by you as you try to find your way back up again.
Most of the amazing people who volunteer on a weekly basis understand too well how it feels like to be in a very difficult situation, and they are committed to making a difference in the lives of the people in the local community. Their positivity and dedication in the face of challenges meant we can continue to provide vital and critical support to many vulnerable people while at the same time providing them with the tools and skills to overcome their challenges and live and independent lives.
Our vision is to create a safe space where people can have a hot meal and a wrap-around service that will provide rapid intervention to enable the vulnerable and those struggling not to fall through the gaps.
The funds raised will be used to provide weekly hot meals to older adults and those going through financial difficulties through the winter months and expand volunteer capacity to provide ongoing support for the community.
It will also enable us to provide additional support to families with complex an multiple needs while at the same time addressing their immediate situation.
