ALDI LICHFIELD

We are a Burntwood charity ran by local people who focus on supporting families and putting our community first. We offer food support, friendship and volunteering opportunities whilst delivering a wide range of groups and workshops. We work closely with other local organisations and initiatives to strengthen connections, give opportunities to build brighter futures. With open arms we welcome those locally.

Burntwood Be A Friend (BBAF) was born from crisis, founded during the Covid-19 pandemic with a singular aim: to ensure no one in our community felt forgotten. What began as a team of volunteers delivering essentials has since evolved into a dynamic, multi-faceted charity supporting over 850 households in Burntwood and its surrounding areas. From our Community Store and wellbeing walks to free cooking classes and counselling, BBAF listens to needs and responds with action.

MLSS is a homeless charity called Midland Langar Seva Society. We provide food, support and relief to those on the poverty line, schools in deprived areas, safe houses, shelters and those living on the streets. MLSS operate on a Sikh based ethos, where we help and support all people regardless of social status. We cook and prepare hot meals 7 days a week in 26 towns across the UK. We also provide food goody bags to those that are vulnerable. - This Christmas get involved with our annual shoebox appeal - where MLSS provide the annual Christmas dinner at the Grand Central Station - Birmingham!
