The provision of emergency food for families in crisis across Warrington. Thousands of people across Warrington are struggling to feed their families and living in food poverty. 1 in 5 families that use our service are currently in employment and still struggling to make ends meet. Families are being forced to make impossible decisions between heating and eating. As the cost of living crisis bites deeper, our donations are decreasing as the number of people urgently needing to access our service is increasing exponentially. To plug this deficit in donations we are having to buy food in bulk to ensure that we can still meet the demand. This fund will ensure that we can survive the winter and continue to help our families in crisis.

We are a community response hub for the residents of Partington, Carrington and Warburton, working to ensure that every single member of our community is cared for. Whether this involves accessing healthy food, collecting prescriptions, feeding their pets, or financial support with utilities we want to make sure that no one is missed. We work to provide such services as food deliveries and donations, signposting to additional services and providing well-being checks where needed. In addition, over the coming weeks we will be opening a community shop to further support our local community, providing essential items such as healthy food and household cleaning products, at low cost to local residents. This is where we hope your support can come in as we look to continue supporting our community through weekly food parcels to those families with the greatest financial need and as we begin to stock the community shop.
