We would like funding to help continue the breakfast club over the next few months as previous funding has now come to an end. The breakfast club costs just over £100 per week to run, providing free breakfasts to 60-80 people every week it runs. This helps reduce the impact of the cost of living by allowing people to come to a warm safe space for food. It also helps link people up and improve mental health and wellbeing by bringing the community together.
