Based in Houghton le springs, we are temporarily working ftom 15 St Michaels We are a community based organisation dedicated to helping vulnerable persons in the community such as asylum seekers, residents of the YMCA and working with the YMCA by collecting surplus and food donations from location shops such as Lidl and others. We d nit charge anyone for our services as all our funding and expenses comes ftom pocket. We organise fun days and team bonding and building activities too. Being aware of the challenges of societal lives, we hope to bring a little relief and succour to our community. We have gotten any press coverages just yet. As we are growing our brand and services hence we require an operational vehicle and office space to operate from. We are building some synergy and working relationships with other local groups but that is at the teething phase.
