Our Vision: Building a Stronger, More Connected Community

In March 2020, the UK faced an unprecedented emergency crisis as the government announced a national lockdown in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The sudden restrictions left many elderly and vulnerable individuals isolated, unable to access essential resources such as food, medicine, and support. Recognising the urgent need for action, a dedicated group of volunteers formed the Covid Crisis Project, a community-led initiative that provided immediate relief to those most affected.

During this critical time, the Covid Crisis Project successfully supplied over 3,000 freshly prepared meals to those in need, distributed vital food parcels, and delivered prescriptions to parishioners who were unable to leave their homes. Through these efforts, it became clear that our local area lacked sufficient community services and long-term support systems, leaving many individuals without access to essential care and connection.

Out of this realisation, Bless Community Support was born

Who We Are: Bless Community Support

Our mission is to create a safe and welcoming space where individuals of all ages can come together, access support, and participate in enriching programs that enhance their quality of life.
