Me mahi tahi tātou mō te oranga o te katoa!
Let's work together for the wellbeing of everyone!
BBCP have been supporting our people in need with kai for the last decade. Every Monday, from Beach Haven Community House we are providing at least 70+ whānau with food parcels per fortnight. Whānau are referred through to BBCP from local kura, health providers and social services.
This programme is delivered with the help of a dedicated team of volunteers, and made possible through donations from Kiwi Harvest, The Good Works Trust, New World Birkenhead and Bakers Delight.
In term time, Beach Haven Community House is also the distribution point for local kura to collect weekly lunch packs provided by The Good Works Trust for some of our local tamariki. We are thankful for this food assistance as we want to ensure our kids have every opportunity to learn and grow!
Our generous community also donate kai to the Pātaka Kai (community pantry) set up in front of both our community houses.
If you have any questions about this food security programme please contact: projects@birkdalebeachhaven.org.nz
Kai Tahi Community Meal
BBCP is proud to support Life Community Kitchens and Taka Peters in hosting this community meal every Wednesday at 5.30pm in the Birkdale Hall.
Over 80 families are welcomed into the hall for a free two course meal each week. This is an amazing opportunity for the community to come together and enjoy quality kai.
