Sainsbury's Lupset Local

Hi. Our community group was set up back in March 2020 amid the lock down for the vulnerable. From there we set up a food bank & also did shopping for the vulnerable and collected prescriptions etc. We now have referrals from the Wakefield North and have been commended by Wakefield Council for the running of the food bank and the number of local people we have been able to help. We have had radio coverage too which came as a surprise! One of our volunteers was even interviewed on Radio Leeds quite recently. Our social media is covering a vast area and referrals come through Wakefield council for the food bank. The community is also donating. But due the ever increasing demand we still run short of food items. Any donations would be much appreciated and we can move forward in knowing we have the goods for the food bank for the referrals coming through. Thank you from all our volunteers @ Wrenthorpe & Kirkhamgate Assist.

CGCC Food Bank have been operating since April 2020. We began work during the COVID pandemic and quickly identified that support was required in the local area. We are proudly supported by Calder Grove Cricket Club and are based at their premises. We deliver around 50 free of charge food parcels every week to families and individuals. Some refer directly to us but we encourage all in need to seek a referral from a professional agency so as to ensure wider support is available if needed. We receive most of our referrals this way.

At heart, SKT Welfare is a group of compassionate, honest and hard-working humanitarians. We believe that everyone - no matter their race, religion or gender - deserves a chance at a happy, fulfilling life. Over the past decade, we have provided urgent aid and sustainable relief to millions of disadvantaged people across the globe. Our projects focus on emergency relief, food, water, healthcare, education, orphan care and seasonal aid, such as winter emergency response and Qurbani donations. We serve some of the most vulnerable people in the world; those affected - through no fault of their own - by conflict, poverty and natural disasters. Our vision is for a world in which everyone is cared for, thrives, and is free from extreme poverty. As an Islamic charity, we are led by an unshakeable faith and a strong desire to help the most vulnerable, following in the footsteps of the Prophet (saw).
