We are Bury Seventh Day Adventist church, based at 32 Parkhill’s Road, Bury, BL9 9HS - Charity Number: 1045501. As a small community church with a vision for providing a safe and warm place for vulnerable, lonely, struggling families to come and have some food, get a food parcel and have a conversation with someone. In doing this we tackle loneliness, isolation and tough times for people who are struggling both financially and emotionally during these tough times. We started out as a soup kitchen for rough sleepers a year ago, it has become apparent that there is a larger need for people struggling to make basic ends meet and who are socially isolated. We hope to continue giving out a meal with a food parcel in our open-air car park, following Covid government guidelines

Our food club is in a deprived area, aiming to support people managing with their weekly grocery bill. People become members and pay £4 a shop (with a value of £12-£18). It's a positive environment with people finding a sense of worth and community. It's a help up not a hand out. We provide refreshments and an opportunity to talk with people.
