Sainsbury's Leigh Atherleigh Way

Our goal is to support families in any way we can, physically , practically, spiritually and emotionally. We have a barnabas fund in place to help those in our local communities who need assistance and we aim to help those in need primarily through this fund. We have set up the Trading Post at our Hindley Green Church . It’s situated at the Bethel on Atherton road , Hindley Green. We are open Friday from 10-11 am and give away fresh food ( fruit / veg/ baked goods) plus cupboard staples. We are also open Saturday 10-11 am for fresh food only . We are thankful to neighbourly stores ( Aldi, M&S, Lidl) for their continued support, to Slimming World, Hindley Green and Daisy Daycare for their generous donations. We feed between 30-60 families a week from the community. Our aim is to take the pressure off ordinary families and as such we do not ask for referrals , it’s a ‘whosever will may come ‘ organisation . We want families in our community to live life to the full and we help in any way we can .

The work of the centre as a community anchor is carried out by a team of staff and volunteers, who deliver services to the local area to meet the needs of local people. current activities improve the fitness and health, provide food for those in poverty, deliver early years education, improve life skills and employment opportunities and reduce isolation of local people.

Wigan & Leigh Hospice relies heavily on fundraising and the kindness of our community. Any support you can offer would make a real difference, whether that's allowing us to carry out bucket collections, donating a prize for a raffle, helping to promote our events, or supporting us in another way that works for you. The hospice provides essential care for people in our borough living with incurable illnesses, as well as support for their loved ones. Thanks to people like you, our specialist nurses can care for patients in their own homes, in nursing and residential settings, and on our Inpatient Unit, where our teams provide 24/7 care. Your support helps ensure that patients and families can access vital services such as counselling, complementary therapy, bereavement support and more. If you're able to help in any way, thank you so much. Together, as a community, we can make sure hospice care is there for those who need it most.
