ALDI WIDNES - GREEN OAKS WAY

Mixed gender supported accommodation for vulnerable adults focusing on health, well being and nutrition. We provide targeted one to one support, information and advice regarding dual diagnosis, mental health, finance issues, benefits and sexual health. Our aim is to provide support which is holistic, person-centred and enables residents to achieve greater independence and long term appropriate housing.

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.

We are a local Primary School who have set up a local hub within our school grounds to help and support our school families. We are supporting our school families with essentials to survive the current crisis. We set up the hub offering food, coats, shoes, uniform, books and toys. We are used most days and will support with what we can. People are needing to access emergency supplies across our community because they cannot afford to buy food. Your donations will mean food hubs can fill the gap until poverty levels are reduced. We are trying our best to relive anxiety and support our school community. Every little help goes a very long way.
