Breakfast Club at Academy 360 welcomes students at 8am with several choices of hot and cold breakfast which include items such as toast, porridge, bagels, cereal, overnight oats, fresh fruit and yogurts. At Academy 360 we understand the importance of healthy breakfast to start a students day. The students are able to sit with their friends or family, maybe catch up on homework or simply chat to staff before the start of their day. At Academy 360 our service is free so we welcome help and support with breakfast items from food, crockery, cutlery and electrical items such as toasters and microwaves.

Our project operates from the RCCG Living Faith Sunderland church premises, located at North Bridge Street, Sunderland. SR5 1AB. Our facilities are equipped to support a variety of community services and activities, ensuring a welcoming and supportive environment for all who visit. We distribute from the charity building every Sunday and every other days. We identify service users and their needs by community outreach, direct engagement, and feedback from our congregation and local partners. This includes conducting surveys, holding community meetings, and maintaining open lines of communication with those we serve. Our dedicated team of volunteers and church members actively listen to the needs of our community, ensuring that our services are tailored to meet these needs effectively. In addition to food support, RCCG Living Faith Sunderland offers a range of services. All the services provided by our organization, including food support, are offered free of charge.
