Due to the Covid-19 outbreak, St Augustine’s plans are as follows for the foreseeable future:
- Advice support line: 07743045625 / 07756262024 10am – 3pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
- Hot lunches provided in takeaway boxes on Mondays and Thursdays from St Augustine’s. For collection and when possible delivery.
- From early-mid April: new food parcel service in partnership with Halifax Opportunities Trust and Himmat. Referrals and delivery only.
- We are also exploring online activities including as English classes, support groups and sharing up to date information.
People from all over the world come together as family at St Augustine’s, and it feels strange not to be able to open the doors. But our priority now is to keep our centre users, staff and volunteers safe by staying at home, and keeping in regular communication.
Like so many out there, CV-19 is costing us considerably in terms of time and resources, with a depleted team. Donations are especially welcome now and can be made to: https://www.give.net/20171078
Thank you to everyone who is working, volunteering and supporting us currently. You replenish us. If you are interested in volunteering with us, please email [email protected] – in time we may need willing and well people to help with food packing, delivery, cooking. Hygiene advice and equipment supplied.
