Here at Helping Hearts Fylde we work alongside many other charities and organisations to ensure we can offer a complete wrap-around service to meet our clients needs. One charity who we collaborate with is BCFU who specialise in housing, debt and benefit advice. 🤝

Adam, Reachout Project Worker from BCFU shares his thoughts on working with us;

"BCFU's partnership with Helping Hearts Fylde is very important as it allows us to help their vulnerable service users at the earliest opportunity. We have been able to advise certain marginalised communities that we ordinarily do not reach, such as those that are "street homeless".

📅 ⏰ BCFU offer a monthly drop-in advice service on the last Thursday of the month from New life Community Centre (18:15-19:45) and also every Wednesday at Layton Community House and every Thursday at Revoelution.

Reminder - Tomorrow is our monthly FREE Chat-Tea event.

Come along between 12 and 3 and get a free cup of tea, coffee or soft drink AND a cake and take the opportunity to just stop for a short while and chat with other members of our team or the grocery.

While you are here, why not chat to the Green Doctors (a registered charity) on ways to save on your heating costs. Also present will be Adam from Blackpool Centre for the Unemployed (local welfare rights advice charity) to offer Benefit and Debt advice.
