It’s International Day of Charity and as a community shopping centre we are dedicated to providing support wherever we can to those who need it. As part of our Just for Joy initiative, we are offering donations and raising awareness of local causes through partnering with a variety of charities based in Liverpool.
With National Food Bank Day being just around the corner, we’re putting our efforts into providing emergency food aid for social justice charity Micah Liverpool. As a team we’ve pitched together to provide essential food items with contributions from retailers and our staff members for emergency food parcels.
According to research from The University of Liverpool, one in three working age adults within the city are currently facing food insecurity. As a team we managed to collect over 100 kilos of food and through our donation we hope to be able to support the great work Micah Liverpool does to combat food poverty in Liverpool.
Micah Liverpool’s important work has supported around 6,500 people in the last 12 months, including over 1,400 children, providing on average 350 food parcels each week. If you would like to find out more about their work and ways to donate click the link here: https://micahliverpool.com/
