Community Information Days
Open days where people can find out about the services, support and opportunities around them.
Essential Support Packs
Food and essentials for households facing a hard period, planned and delivered with local volunteers.
- Community Support
The challenge
Illness, the loss of work or a sudden emergency can leave a household without the basics. Support that arrives quickly — and respectfully — can stop a hard month from becoming a crisis.
What this work focuses on
- Packs of food and everyday essentials
- Delivery to households who cannot easily travel
- Connecting families with longer-term support
How the work is approached
Support is given with dignity: discreetly, and with choice wherever possible.
Local volunteers, who know their neighbourhoods, help plan who is reached and follow up afterwards.
What it aims to change
- Households supported through a difficult period
- Families connected to services that can help further
- A volunteer network ready to respond
