Job Club & Drop In
Free drop-in job club on Thursday morning to help people find work, create and review CVs, apply for and check Universal Credit, get online or become more confident with computers. Helpful people to provide support with forms or questions too. Tea, coffee and toast.
Food parcels
We run a small food bank for local people in need on Thursday afternoon. We donate about three days of food to people, provided they have been referred by another relevant agency. We always take time to listen to people and will provide them with additional contacts for further help whenever we can. Because our food bank relies on donations, we are happy to hear from anyone who wants to donate non-perishable food to us.
We are very grateful to Morrisons in Openshaw who support us through their store in Lime Square.
Clothes and household items
If people need clothing or small household items (eg. pans, crockery) we can offer them a choice from the stock in our charity shop. As with food parcels, we accept referrals from other agencies for this.
Walking Group
Once a month we go walking - usually a Wednesday. Not too far. Not too long. Fairly flat. Routes are suitable for wheelchair users. We always find time for a cup of tea about half way. It's usually 10.15am.
