Thanks to everyone who drops off food at our Aldi Boxes across Macclesfield. We collect twice a week from both stores, often chatting with customers about what we do at the Silklife foodbank. We are incredibly greatful to Aldi for allowing us to have boxes in the stores . Special shout out to Paul, the manager at the Aldi in town. He is always on hand to support us and helps us when we need to order stock with the funds the public donate through just giving.Thanks Paul, we are very greatful for the support you show Dan and the team. Pictured is Dan collecting some of this weeks donations.

Thanks for calling in and for all your donations DoorCo Ltd !

As part of our charitable giving mission, we’re making some donations to our local food bank again this Christmas. Today, Will and Natalie visited the Silklife Foodbank Macclesfield in Macclesfield to deliver the donations from everyone at DoorCo.

It’s really important that we support those in our local communities that are vulnerable or have fallen on hard times and are unable to provide for themselves who might otherwise go hungry, especially around Christmas.

Great to see you this morning Independence Support ! Thanks for your support!

COMMUNITY HUB UPDATE AND CHRISTMAS BAPS!

We see an average of 30 guests per session attending the community hub on a weekly basics. We had over 45 adults in on one session earlier this year and we have helped over 300 different people over the last 3 years.

Our team have seen people go from street homeless to hostel places and onto their own flats! People who use the community hub included foodbank service users; street homeless , rough sleepers and hostel residents all aged 18+. There are also those who have used the hub as a warm space and a place for respite.

We continue to offer free refreshments and a warm space on a Wednesday morning at the Silklife Centre for clients aged 18+ with access to foodbank support, advice from cheshire Housing advisor Lindsay , hair cuts and more!

Thank you to all of our foodbank team, most who are volunteers, and also the professional services that make the hub the success it is.

Today we held our Christmas Party morning. We had over 50 people through the doors for hot baps with all the trimmings!

Thank you to 𝙔𝘼𝙎 𝘽𝙀𝘼𝙉, for once again donating a chocolate brownie christmas tree, Mika also helps out once a month as a member of the team!

Thanks also to N Carter & Co on Church street for giving us a great deal on our turkey when Dan knocked on early in the morning this week!
