The stage is set for an interesting couple of hours with the Welcome Hub network, discussing the most pressing food issues for refugee and asylum seeking communities in Gateshead, and what action we can take collectively. Thanks @JulianPrior for organising and facilitating.

A lovely video showing the vital work @GFoodbank do, not only in providing emergency food but a listening ear, financial inclusion support, and a glimmer of hope.
