Activities
As described by the charity on the register
Activities focus on the relief of poverty premiums in low income families. The charity is building a membership model, whereby families with low disposable income will be offered the provision of a basket of services i.e. weekly supply of fresh food, to help that income go further, in return for a low membership fee. We have numerous venues across the UK.
