My Community Champion award this October goes to The Table at St Peter’s Church in Rosehill, Holywell, an initiative led by Father Dominic Cawdell which offers hot meals prepared by volunteers, to present them with my October Community Champion Award.
It was good to see such a great community-led scheme go from strength to strength – it started as a £2 food club during the pandemic and can now have as many as 200 people to cater for.
For many, The Table offers a lifeline and a chance to connect with others as well as stock up on some essentials through the foodbank that’s been running there. There are also other support services at the centre, including mental health charity Kim Inspire and Flintshire Citizen’s Advice.
