Three goodgymers kept cool in the crypt, sorting mountains of food donations (and endless crates of tinned beef stew) into a mini supermarket style food bank at St Luke's Church to help support families struggling with food poverty through the school summer holidays.

Supporting families in need in Barton Hill

We usually provide a school holiday lunch club and activities during the school holidays for disadvantaged families, since Covid we've been offering food hampers. St Luke's Church Most of the time the families come and collect the food, which most prefer as they get to choose their food. We've been offering more and more food, for which some families have struggled to carry over to their cars or to walk back to their home (less than 10-15min walk). We don't have a large team of volunteers so can't help everyone with the carrying.
