Our Schools Worker spreads the Gospel message and the work that North Lakes Foodbank does in schools across the local area.

This can be through assemblies and lessons which are centred on a theme. If you are a teacher and are currently teaching a certain theme, get in touch with Stuart our Schools Worker who can deliver a lesson on your chosen theme.

Pathways for getting help

Help Through Hardship
 

Help Through Hardship is a helpline coordinated by Citizens Advice and Trussell Trust.

Advisors can help address your crisis and provide support to maximise your income, help you navigate the benefits system, and identify any additional grants you could be entitled to. If needed, they’ll issue you with a voucher so you can get an emergency food parcel.

Call 08082082138 or free and confidential advice

Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm

Cost of Living

Both council authorities in West Cumbria (Cumberland and Westmorland and Furness) are providing many pathways to support during the current Cost of Living crisis.

You can find these on their websites, depending on which type of support you require.

Financial Inclusion

 

We have a current project in partnership with Citizens Advice offering in-person financial advice in our six centres, covering topics such as debt and benefits.
