New Centre Opens in Lache

In partnership with Lache Community Development Trust, West Cheshire Foodbank is pleased to announce that the charity will be open at Hawthorn House in Lache every Friday between 12am and 2pm from the 13th November onwards.


Emma Greenwood, Operations Co-ordinator at West Cheshire Foodbank said:

"Every month, hundreds of local people visit our Foodbank to feed themselves and their families. We hope that this new centre will make it easier for people to exchange their voucher for food during what is often a very difficult and stressful time. 

We'd like to say a huge thank you to all the people we've been working with in Lache who have helped us to reach this stage and who have been so supportive and patient as we learn how best to meet the needs of our friends and neighbours together."

Petra Greener, Administration Co-ordinator at West Cheshire Foodbank added:

“We all occasionally need help and I’d encourage anyone who is finding it difficult to afford food to visit one of the 50 organisations we work with that hold vouchers.

They’ll quickly understand your situation and may give you a voucher which you can exchange for 3 days of food for you and your family. In Lache, you can visit Lache and Handbridge Children's Centre, Lache Primary School or Sanctuary Housing Group (Lache Office).

Please do just get in touch with our team if you have any questions by calling 0151 355 7730, emailing info@westcheshire.foodbank.org.uk or tweeting us @WestCheshireFB.”
