THE CAUSE
The Oldham Food Bank is moving to what was the 3 Crowns pub on West St (opposite the Civic Centre). Working alongside Christians against Poverty and Keyring they have received a grant from the National Lottery to run the Ancora Project. This provides a free support service for residents of Oldham experiencing crisis. They offer support on, finances and debt, maximising benefits, housing, emergency food vouchers, access to health services, counselling, advice and informal advocacy, signposting to other services and life skills training.
One of the things that they want to do is to provide a commercial kitchen, so that community groups can come along and cook fresh food for those who need it. Some using produce that they have grown themselves, or as in the case of the Real Junk Food Project, using waste food donated by supermarkets and the market.
For this to happen we need to raise £14k. So please can you help us, one by donating, however small, and also by passing this plea onto your family and friends.
It is embarrassing, that in 2017 we are having to do this. Many people who turn up at the foodbank for help have jobs, many of those jobs are zero hour contracts, they don’t know from one week to the next how much wage they will get, if any.
