We are pleased that we have been chosen as one of Waitrose's Community Matters green token scheme. If you can get to the Winton branch, please pop a token or two ( or 20 😉) into the LIFEhouse slot....the other choices are Bmth Foodbank and Salvation Army, so we are definitely up against it 😂😂 ( however we love and support both the other 2 so it's all good ☺️)

💬 Kooth – Free online chat and journal support
📞 Childline – Call 0800 1111 or chat online
💚 Samaritans – Call 116 123, 24/7
📱 SHOUT – Text SHOUT to 85258
🗣️ CALM – Call 0800 58 58 58 or use webchat
🏥 Connection – Call 0800 652 0190 or NHS 111 and select the mental health option

Reaching out for support is a sign of strength. Save this post so you have these numbers when you need them, and share it with someone who might find it helpful.

Please help if you can 😊
We are thrilled that a mum and her teenage daughter are being rehoused somewhere permanent .They've had a very tough journey to get here over the last few years and we are keen to help them get settled.
This flat has nothing...no carpets, no cooker, no anything ......so does anyone have things they don't need anymore that can be donated??
We can apply for a crisis grant for around £500 otherwise it's down to us as a community to help.
Salvation army have donated a sofa and beds.
Get in touch if you can help

Warehouse Wednesday 💚

This week’s Warehouse Wednesday plea is for Bags for Life.

Every week we provide food parcels to local people experiencing hardship, and reusable bags help make that possible. They allow people to collect and safely carry their food parcels home with dignity.

If you have any spare Bags for Life that you no longer need, we’d be incredibly grateful if you could donate them.

You can drop donations off at:
📍 Our Warehouse
📍 The Garden Rooms Café
📍 Any of our Foodbank Hubs

Every bag donated helps us support another local person. Thank you for continuing to make a difference in our community. 💚

711-715 Wimborne Road
