It's so important for people in recovery and the wider community to have somewhere to go on weekends, as it's often the time when individuals need support the most. It's a great resource. Hot food and clothing is so necessary in these difficult times when everyone is struggling. This funding will go a long way to ensure that local people have a good meal and will be able to keep warm this winter.
