'Old Moat Quids In' Food Club
Pending display name
We aim to keep families in Old Moat and Withington well-fed with our community food club.
About this cause
We help households in Old Moat and Withington who are struggling to feed their families by offering up to £15 worth of food for just a £2 weekly membership fee. We work with FareShare and local shops to redistribute food, including fresh and chilled items, that would otherwise be thrown away. Members choose the food they need. Anyone who lives in the local area and gets certain benefits can join.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We help to promote health and wellbeing by making sure people can get more essential food at a low cost. We encourage our members to get to know each other – both in person when they get their food or in the club’s online groups. Quids In staff and volunteers are on hand to offer support and we work with other local services and groups to connect people with the help they need.
