South Liverpool Zero Waste Community

Liverpool, UK

We redistribute surplus food from supermarkets to the local community and local charities. This not only saved food from landfill but also helps to build community. - What premises does your project operate from? Currently 38 Linkside Rd, L25 9NX. This is registered with EHO. We have just been offered one day a week in a local shop. We are also working with two local councillors (Mirna Juarez and Sharon Connor) to rent space in a local church hall in an evening too. - How do you identify service users and their needs? They approach us through our facebook page, word of mouth or other people/organisations direct them to ourselves. For example, Alice Bennett, an ex local councillor directed us to a lady with seven children. They also come to our Friday community event in Hunts Cross Gardens. - Are there any other services provided by your organisation other than food support? Our other aim is building community and providing opportunities for volunteering. - Is there a charge for the service(s) provided by your organisation? No - Do you currently collect surplus food from any other retailers? Yes – Tesco and a local Co op. - Has there been local press or similar that demonstrates your organisation's work in the local community? Not yet although the local councillors do share our facebook page. - Would it be possible to provide photographs of work that your organisation does in the local community? There are lots on our facebook page and Instagram page - Is your project a registered charity, registered CIC, social enterprise or non-profit organisation? We have made an application. - Have you partnered with other local good causes or council members who may be able to provide a reference? If you would like to provide a reference from a local organisation, if you could ask them to email us at food@neighbourly.com as soon as possible, that would be great. Coucillors: Sharon Connor, Kris Brown, Malcolm Kelly and Mirna Juarez. Unifill – local shop. LIAN – Liverpool in arms at night. Alder Hey Children’s Hospital. Fika community event Hunts Cross Community – we run a weekly event in the community gardens.

Victory Outreach Church Liverpool

Liverpool, UK

Victory Outreach Liverpool has had great success in helping people that have struggled with substance misuse, crime and other life-impairing circumstances, restore their lives with dignity and purpose. One key area we in Victory Outreach strive towards is seeing the restoration of families. We also believe in helping children, teens, and young adults unlock their potential, gifting, and talents to become all they are meant to be in life and in society. One of the programs we have here at Victory Outreach is the Manna Project where we collect food through charitable donations and distribute to our community and other families in need of assistance. We believe in being a light of hope in our community and to the city of Liverpool.
