M&S Silverlink Newcastle

We serve the church, community and in extension the communities around the church too. As an organisation we operate in all categories of need but focus on feeding the needy in our community and giving those who need clothing and essentials to live. Those are two of the areas we operate in. Everybody in society benefits, be it the young or old. Focusing on those in need and focusing on those in our communities that needs the help the most. The RCCA operates majorly from Restoration House, Norham Rd, Newcastle upon Tyne, North Shields NE29 7TN. Food supplies once collected are arranged and displayed in the dining hall at various times during the week, especially on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays for members and non-members to select from free of charge. Where individuals or family are unable to collect products, due to caring responsibilities or access to transportation, we operate a volunteering community group who pick up items and drop these at the doorstep of the family/individual free of charge. There are designated members of the charity whose responsibility is to constantly liaise with the wider members of the charity community to identify their needs. The community then regularly feeds back their needs to these persons. By the middle of the week, all information received is then collated and analysed. Users who have confirmed their specific needs are first prioritised, after which the rest of the supplies are declared open for the rest of the members who may not have previously indicated any specific needs. Various times during the week, notifications are sent to all registered members of the community as soon as food supplies from neighbourly are available to be picked up. This notification is sent via text messages and sometimes (especially during Christmas) broadcasted through WhatsApp where there is need for prompt pick up before public holiday and closure of the pick-up venue. The RCCA also operates a community centre which opens twice a month for users in need of clothing, shoes, bags, household appliances, books, diapers, toiletries, etc. The items at the centre are donated by members and non-members and are made available to anyone in need of these for free.
