ALDI MERTHYR TYDFIL

Who we are, where we work from and who we help: We bring together our neighbours at the Ty Gwaunfarren older people’s social housing scheme, Merthyr Tydfil, through our Pantry and by cooking healthy meals in our communal kitchen and eating them together in our communal lounge. We collect surplus food from M&S and Lidl, which we share out amongst our neighbours. We also cook meals most days, including Christmas Day. Most of the residents here live alone so the meals bring us together to eat healthy food together as a community and it helps reduce loneliness and isolation.
