Hi Friends and Family,
Hope this text finds you well.
It really has been a while since I have contacted you about NCMS.
You may not know but this week is “Carers Week 2022” and I thought this would be a good opportunity to just update you on a few things and do our yearly ask.
We have moved into a new place that really meets our needs for the things we would like to implement with Nancy’s Community Meals Services.
So first I would like to thank the incredible individuals that have been gifting meals – this service has afforded us to help individuals, families and now we have started to support more of our community that are brought to our attention that need help. You are phenomenal – since January 2022 we have served just shy of 100 gift a meals, yes, you have read correctly and this is thanks to so many of you. (So grateful).
We need more help, we all are experiencing the rise in cost of living and this is impacting so many more families and friends that where already on, or near the poverty line. Sometimes it breaks my heart to not be able to respond as I would like to.
To ensure that we are meeting the needs rather than paying out for overheads, I now run NCMS bi-weekly. This was a hard decision but a wise one. This will increase when I am able to obtain funding or sponsorship or take up demands this.
We also now have a wellbeing pot, where we support individuals that are in need of a cooked meal, again this is brought to my attention by members of the family in need or through this great network that keeps me in the loop….If you know someone that could benefit from our service, please email us: [email protected]
So here we go, I need your help no amount is too small and there is no amount too large that I cannot utilise in a good way. So, here’s a few ways you can give:
