Today is the 1 year anniversary of Reaching Out Liverpool 💜
A few like minded people came together and decided to continue the work we had done as individuals and form an outreach group. We wanted to help as many people as we could in Liverpool City Centre, and over the last year we have helped a huge amount of people have a better night
We have been out with our mobile service over 60 times, and have given out at least 2,500 hot meals … as well as warm clothing, snacks, toiletries and countless hot drinks
As it’s our anniversary we wanted to say a huge thank you to all our volunteers - both past and present. A huge thank you also to anyone who has supported us along the way - from those who’ve cooked hot meals for us to give out, people who have helped organise and participate in one of our fundraisers, anyone who has donated money or clothing to us, and anyone who has given up their precious time by helping others … We wouldn’t have lasted 1 week never mind 1 year without all the support we have received
Whilst the ultimate aim is for us to never have to do this - imagine living in a country that supports those at the bottom - if the need is there, we will continue to help where we can
Big shout out to all the other outreach groups who provide services in Liverpool City Centre, and to all the other charities and community groups in the area who work tirelessly to provide support to a huge range of issues within the city
Thank you 💜
