We support refugees and asylum seekers with basic needs, activities, social events, music events and food/meals cooked together. We run free pop up shops and have a hub in Wrexham and work with other partners to identify needs from families and individuals and support with them. We run a community garden for everyone to share and grow food and exchange language informally. We have an info point in town for Ukrainians and hosts. We are raising funds for needs for Ukrainian families

Saving good surplus food from going to landfill by redistributing it to local individuals helping to fight food waste & food poverty. Currently supplying predominantly those from the older population & healthcare workers, but for any individual, from all backgrounds, regardless of their ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, race or religion and who lives or works in Gresford & who wishes to help prevent food wastage. This is not a food bank, it relies on volunteers to collect supermarket & shop food that is unsold, close to use by or past its best before date that would otherwise be sent landfill. As well as food support, signposting is available if needed. There is no charge for this service. Food is delivered in Gresford & local craft groups (Wrexham) where users have a choice of which items/food they would like to save from landfill. Currently food is collected from local Co-op stores, but hopefully other branded stores will be added soon! We always greatly appreciate in date food donations which can either be dropped off or collected. Any queries, please email: Gresfordcommunityfood@yahoo.com

Hi I’m Claire I’m running a food donation cupboard for surplus food from my home address for my community which is Rossett burton and lavister in Wrexham and the border of England there is a population of 3500 people in this village alone and plenty of single people Upto family’s are really struggling even more at this very moment .. I’m fairly new with my new cupboard to share free food or food boxes to people who are in need and to ensure people have a meal daily also to cut down waste going to landfill which is a extra bonus I have set up a Facebook page for people of any requirements that are struggling to get in touch with us or pass any details we will be looking at delivering once a week to elderly when we have contact details in place that don’t use social media for instance I shall be making up flyers and contact cards to give people peace of mind to arrange the help for them with no charge in place.
