Lidl Bradford Girlington

JKN Outreach was established in November 2018 with the purpose of supporting the most vulnerable members of society by providing access to food, clothing, and essential toiletries. We are a 100% volunteer-led and community-funded organisation, operating at grass-roots level from the heart of Bradford. Our work is driven by a commitment to alleviating hardship, promoting dignity, and ensuring that no individual or family in need is left without support. By mobilising local resources and fostering community spirit, we aim to deliver practical assistance and compassionate care to anyone who requires it. A service that's run by the people, for the people.

Our motivation is derived from the fact that more than a quarter of a million people are homeless in England (BBC). The figures show homelessness hotspots outside London, with high rates in Birmingham, Brighton and Luton. To continue with our organisational mission of reaching out to those needing help the most; and practicing “charity begins at home”, we started food distribution drive in Birmingham. Our charity is a community development not for profit organisation that offers food to people who are in need. It aims to offer multi-faceted contributions to communities, advances community and development goals and works to fill the overall needs for its targeted focus areas.Our faith inspires us to be an organisation built on compassion, and motivated by love.

We are Hope Yorkshire, we organise and deliver a range of different projects to support those most in need and recognised as vulnerable. The friends feeding Families Project is one of our ongoing initiatives across Bradford. We aim to reach out to those in need by providing Food, Clothes & essential items via door step deliveries and with access to our Independent Community Food/ Clothing and Baby Bank,. Bradford is ranked as the second most deprived local authority in Yorkshire and Humber, with 15% of households living in fuel poverty. This means more then 22% of children are living below the poverty line. We understand that there are multiple and complex issues that have created these circumstances, however we believe working with and in the community is an integral first step in achieving a hunger free future.
