ALDI ABERGAVENNY

Help for All Gwent is a local voluntary group that accepts donations from the local community and donate to people in need. This includes essential items such as food, clothing and household items. We work closely with a local charity that donates furniture to families in need and help people in crisis with sourcing clothes and furniture. Families can register with Help For All Gwent to receive weekly or biweekly food parcels. The group is run by volunteers who collect food from Sainsbury’s and Aldi. The food is then distributed to families who can either collect or have delivered to them if they have no means of transport. We work closely with other local charities and community groups and cover each other's food collections if needed. Volunteers have completed basic food safety training to enable them to.distribute all food collected and understand the importance of food safety.

Brynmawr Rotary Community Foodbank - Here to Support Our Community At Brynmawr Rotary Community Foodbank, we are committed to supporting individuals and families across Blaenau Gwent during times of crisis. Our mission is to provide essential items, - such as food, toiletries, and access to further support - through trusted partnerships with local organisations. Referrals to our service come from a wide range of public and voluntary sector agencies. Support is typically offered for up to four weeks within a 12-month period, with each request carefully assessed based on individual need and the support already in place. In addition to emergency provisions, our dedicated team can connect people with agencies offering help with benefits, financial hardship, and personal challenges - ensuring a holistic and compassionate approach to crisis support. Our work is made possible by the generosity of our local community. Donations from residents, churches and schools. Contributions to the Lidl donation basket in Brynmawr, and financial support through grants and gifts help us maintain vital supplies. We also at times receive fresh produce through valued partnerships with Neighbourly, Lidl, and Aldi, allowing us to include healthy, fresh options in the parcels we provide. We are proud to be part of a caring and generous community. Together, we’re making a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need it most.
