4 months agoI think 88 % per cent of staff are super nice, kind, and caring. The food bank is fresh food, not out-dated 2 yrs lol, and you can go in once a week between 10am to 12pm on Tuesday and thursday mornings! I love the fact you go into a room with case worker and choose what you want too. Also you run on a point setting...I.e like me, being a handsome Balachor, get 50 points ylto use, so I go round fridges and shelves with small trolly and get my supply's. Like a tin of canned fruit is 2 points, 3 points for two toilet rolls, chicken for six points, spaghetti for 1 point and shampoo for 4 points, and you get the picture! Also you can get a coffee or tea while waiting and a cookie if your lucky lol. Best thing of all. I have a lady there I see once a week for counselling and prayer, support, kindness and help, but most of all, she really does care 4 me , and love me as a good Christian ✝️ 💖 should. There is no falseness at all in here. I givevthis counsellor 10/10 for the amazing work and patience she shows me. "Amy" , is a real amazing Christian married Woman , and a true blessing. Salvation Army is really blessed and lucky to have her in their GODS ARMY, and I think she highly 💜 🙏 ❤️ 😊 deserves a pay- rise too 😇🥰🤧😎😷😹💔💯💢💥💫❤️🩹🫴✌️🫳👍🙌🫶👐🤲🙏🙏🙏💪✍️🙋♀️👸🫂🌿🍀🌏💒🚛🚨🎄🎉✨️🎇🎖🏅🎁⛑️🔊📢☎️📞📱✝️🕯📚,CANDYBOY OXO

2 years agoA place to go for worship of God Almighty, praising Jesus receiving the Holy Spirit. Not about religion as much as a relationship with God. Does many good wirks in the community
