Since September 2012, we have offered support to the local and wider community who are in food poverty. We are open twice a week for 3 hours, with extra days over the Christmas and Easter. We gave out toys over Christmas so everyone had at least one gift at Christmas.
We meet in the small hall, which can be accessed via the car park off Castleway North. People find us to be very welcoming with tea, coffee, biscuits, toys, music and magazines. We seek to ensure the clients receive the items that suit their needs and a friendly ear if they wish to talk about their difficulties. We offer prayer support to those who would like it.
We are open on a Tuesday and Wednesday 11am-2pm every week.
The impact of the food bank has been vast – to the volunteers and the recipients alike. “you gave me milk for my baby”, ‘the toy you gave me was the only toy my child got this year’, ‘I didn’t know Christians cared so much for me.”
To get some food you need a red voucher from a front line agency such as a ‘One Stop Shop’ (the nearest one to St Chad’s is in Moreton), a Job Club (the nearest one to St Chad’s is in the Millennium Centre), the Early Years Centre (Twickenham Drive. Leasowe), the Solar Campus (Leasowe Road, Leasowe, a social worker, or health visitor to name a few places.
If you need to receive food but we are closed please ring Beryl on 07970 834298.
If you wish to make a donation please bring it to a Food Bank session,
