Our projects

1.   The foodbank provides emergency food boxes to people in short- term crisis in Salisbury and South Wiltshire. We work with care professionals and the wider community to provide, prepare and deliver nutritionally balanced meals for individuals and families.

We issue food at the foodbank centre, based at the Elim Christian Centre. The Centre is a friendly place where people can come in for a cup of coffee and a chat. It's an easy way for us to find out what people need in the way of support and advice.

Our foodbank franchise is building on the success of the Salisbury FOOD BANK. We are creating a network of foodbanks across the UK through the foodbank franchise. Why not start a foodbank in your area?

2. The BULGARIA Project works with people in Bulgaria who find themselves marginalised, rejected and in need.

Our main area of work is the Sofia region.

3. We use the SOCIAL ENTERPRISE method of doing business to involve local communities in our work. They help us raise funds for life-changing projects that restore people's hope and dignity.

Among other businesses, we have established Re-Store Salisbury, a re-use and recycle shop, and Re-Store Fordingbridge, a charity book shop.
