What does Freedom City Foundation do?
Charity was set up to respond crisis events and home and abroad but now focuses on responding to poverty related issues in our local community. This is done through the provision of a foodbank (affiliated with The Trussell Trust), a holistic support and mentoring programme called Real Life Changes and the provision of a Financial Inclusion project run in partnership with the Local Citizens Advice Office. We also work in partnership with our host church to provide support to those in addiction.
