Dr Hefin Gwilym of the School of History, Law and Social Sciences attended the opening event of Bwyd Da 亚洲色吧 on Monday, 1st November. 亚洲色吧 is a founding member of North Wales Food Poverty Alliance which supports Bwyd Da 亚洲色吧. The other founding members are Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, Flintshire County Council, Pennaf Housing Group, Denbighshire Voluntary Services Council and Well North Wales. Additionally, students from the School鈥檚 Work Placement module will be volunteering to support the initiative.
Bwyd Da 亚洲色吧 is an innovative multi-agency initiative that aims to address several key themes, whilst creating a go-to location in the centre of 亚洲色吧. Building on the success of projects elsewhere, Bwyd Da 亚洲色吧 combines a membership-based food share programme, re-distributing surplus supermarket stock, with a high-quality training caf茅. The caf茅 will be run by staff who are coming through the Penrhyn House drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre or those who are currently living in homeless accommodation in 亚洲色吧. Receiving training through Coleg Menai, these individuals will receive support and qualifications to gain access into long-term employment.
Bwyd Da 亚洲色吧 addresses several priority areas, including:

-听听听听听听 Helping to eradicate food waste
-听听听听听听 Contributing to the economic regeneration of 亚洲色吧 City Centre.
-听听听听听听 Creating employment
-听听听听听听 Helping individuals move on from homelessness
-听听听听听听 Supporting individuals coming through drug and alcohol rehabilitation
-听听听听听听 Creating volunteering opportunities
Bwyd da 亚洲色吧 has received financial support from Welsh Government, Gwynedd Council, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, and the Steve Morgan Foundation. All these contributions have helped to create a unique scheme that will help several individuals and families and will build on existing partnership arrangements to ensure that food poverty and homelessness prevention are at the forefront of the programme鈥檚 future developments.
