Poverty Relief

Every Sunday, 1Pm - 3PM, our volunteers distribute food parcels to destitute asylum seekers and refugees. Every Ramadhan, we provide additional food packs to destitute asylum seekers. These food packs are a lifeline to our service users, some of whom have no income or accommodation. We aim to continue our food distribution and are working with our scholars to create a trust fund, through which funds can be given directly to impoverished and destitute people within Glasgow.

Glasgow South West Foodbank

“The foodbank was there when we really needed it, it was an absolute lifeline.” We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
