What can we help with?

In addition to triaging enquiries for our specialist services, the Triage Team assist people living on a low income to access a range of help, such as:

• Distribution of donated food parcels, subject to availability of donations

  • Referrals to SOFA for discounted furniture and household goods
  • Food vouchers/referral, on a first come first serve basis, on behalf of Elim Church, Baxter Gate Church and PACE
• Issue Starter Packs of essential household items, based on need and eligibility, or referring on to The Good Gleaners Project
• Providing a ‘Care of Address’ at The Bridge, for clients without a fixed address
• Assessing eligibility for Charnwood Welfare Provision; emergency food and fuel provision for people in crisis
• Signposting to local drop-in, advice and support services
