We have been running a decade providing hot meals and clothing to our freinds on the streets daily to doing christmas dinners on the streets. This year we have been getting toy and food hampers for families struggling at Christmas, the elderly, and people suffering mental health and disabilities. We help all year round. We get no funding - just loving people donating to a excellent cause. I set up the group years ago after living rough and always said when I got on my feet I would help. 10 years on we're still giving back to communities - something we are passionate about. We are not just an outreach service. You become a shoulder to cry on, helping people through their low points in life. We have spent hours talking to our friends on the streets. We have taken in 15 homeless into our own home been in the media for this. We have put homeless in guest houses by raising funds on our group. We were recently in the Guardian for tracing a homeless friend's family in the USA. We can't turn our backs, something I for one am passionate about. We just struggle for food donations, for our weekly food bank handing out grab bags for children and bags of food for adults. We are raising funds on Bradley's angels every week to buy food to help families struggling elderly and those suffering with disabilities. Start of lickdown we was also taking food supplies to hospitals aswell as in communities.christmas 2020 we handed out over 100 presents. Please support our caring cause thank you ameera ramzan
