UKEFF

UKEFF is a charity that started in 2009 and officiated in 2013 to educate the communities of Oldham following the riots and rising levels of hate. Our aim is to repair our divided community through education, by demonstrating that our differences are beneficial, and that we can unite on the common good.

We tackle poverty and rising costs resulting in the cost of living crisis. We offer a variety of services from food aid, support groups and coffee mornings. We support those struggling to make ends meet, the unemployed, homeless, asylum seekers, refugees and those fleeing domestic abuse.

We are an organisation committed to supporting those in need. We offer support to newly arrived asylum seekers and refugees, as well as those who have been here for some time, in addition to those struggling to make ends meet, the unemployed, homeless and those fleeing domestic abuse.

Our main work centres around food poverty and crisis support to anyone who refers into our service or is referred to us.

Our aim is to work with individuals taking them from being dependent to independence, and navigate the systems which are unfamiliar to them.

Service includes:

• We have a Food Aid Hub which provides culturally appropriate food parcels.

• We can also assist with clothing, household items and financial support through vouchers.

• Our support staff also assist with benefit applications and signposting services, where our staff are unable to help.

• We can help facilitate registering those who are affected by homelessness with the local council teams.
