Partners' Update - Issue 3 September 26

Food clubs

We have six weekly Quids-In Food Clubs across South Manchester, with a current membership of 298 residents, including non-Southway tenants. Residents pay an annual membership and a weekly fee and receive around £20 worth of food. We partner with charity Fareshare to stock the food clubs and volunteers are a huge support in running them.

Over the next five years, we’ll invest at least £5m in our communities to help people to live well and independently.

Our Beautiful South Fund is open for community projects to bid for a share of up to £25,000 each year. We’ve funded 13 projects over the past few months, including:

• Gardening sheds for older residents at Gorton Mill House

• A junior boxing club at Withington Baths
