Activities
'It makes grants, donations or gifts to organisations','It carries out activities or services itself'
'the prevention or relief of poverty','the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage'
Our main activity is hosting healthy, home-cooked meals in churches across the city of Edinburgh and also, recently in Livingston. We assist churches to set up a service to provide hot meals to individuals in poverty or at risk of poverty, or who are in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage. The charity can assist with advice, training and recruitment of volunteers to help establish these meals and then provide continuing assistance, and where required, additional funding, to help the churches continue their meal provision. We partner with other organisations to provide signposting in relation to accommodation, community support, employment, skills training and debt advice.
Beneficiaries: 'Other defined groups','Other charities or voluntary bodies'
