Food Hub:How we Help Manchester Residents Cope with the Cost of Living Crisis
In these tough times and living through the Cost of Living Crisis, it is our job to help out where we can. Due to the rise in the cost of living, there has been a significant rise in people accessing our services. As well as providing food, the pantry acts as an essential gateway for customers to access different types of critical support, such as debt management, mental health awareness, housing issues, and health and well-being support.We run many food hubs across Manchester, specifically in Gorton, Longsight, and Levenshlume, where we provide food essentials at a very low cost. We collaborated with Manchester City Council, Healthy Me Healthy Communities (HMHC) at Gorton Central, Our Manchester, Food Partnership, Fareshare, Emerge, Rafiki Food Network, and MACC. Come find us in Gorton every Friday from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m!
