Nourish This Hunger project has shown the need to help set up projects such as a Community Food Club here in Salford.. There is a desperate need out there. The Community Food Club called Family Food Fayre commenced in January 2021 on Mondays and Thursdays. We have also set up a food club each Wednesday for those in flats in Pendleton in response to the needs in the area. The food club links into the our support hub to provide support for any in need. as well as any struggling with being homeless. This also provides housing and employment advice as well as funding for energy crisis with those on pre-payment meters. We have also set up other Food Clubs in Radcliffe (2) and another in West Salford. Each one helping out with different help including employment/Digital Inclusion/housing/ mental health/surgery advice/debt advice and energy vouchers. The Narrowgate Night Shelter sadly closed in March 2020 due to COVID-19. So another way in which we support homeless people is through Operation Joy, our street outreach program and support hub. Volunteers are now helping the vulnerable on the streets and in the hub with Paul Winter and Daryl. We also have a resettlement worker Cath as well as Nick, the chaplain who goes into help people in three prisons in the area.
