The Feeding Bradford & Keighley Network

Feeding Bradford & Keighley is a multi-agency partnership coordinated by Cathy Henwood of Wellsprings Together. Over the summer holidays the partnership supported a range of venues delivering 120 individual events and more than 2900 meals.

​One mother who brought her children to a holiday club said,

"it's helped me deal with a very stressful time at home. My children have learned to cook and are now cooking healthy meals regularly at home"
