Warmer winter for older people
We provide hot meals for older people and vulnerable adults during our cold spells. We provide house call services to make sure they have adequate heating and provide oil heaters where necessary. We were also one of the areas in Knowsley hosting Winter Warmer Campaign over a 10 week period this included providing information and services and hot meals to older people in the area.

Families across Knowsley enjoyed 54 days of Snap holiday provision which included the offer of nutritious food alongside opportunities for fun & play, with 10 of these day events in Halewood over the month of August 2018 attended by 550 children & young people. Knowsley SNAP was delivered by Knowsley Explore a new partnership of local voluntary faith & Community sector organisations linked to the national ‘Feeding Britain’ network.
