When lockdown struck in March 2020, we had to close Hope House and we knew we needed a way to take our support to the doors of the families who needed it. After speaking with The Wortley House Hotel, we decided to deliver a hot meal once a week to families where a member was undergoing active treatment, or had received a terminal diagnosis. The plan was to do this for 4 weeks...
3 years on and we have delivered over 15,000 meals to families across North Lincolnshire
And we don't plan on stopping there! Each week, the meals are prepared by the Wortley, and delivered by a team of BFS volunteers who have formed friendships with the families they deliver to, and continue to go above and beyond to support them in any way they can.
