A new ‘bistro’ is set to launch and begin serving some of the “neediest families” living within some of the most deprived streets of Liverpool.
Team Oasis, a children’s charity and community centre based in the heart of Dingle, L8, has been providing free food for people in the local area since 2019. Initially, there was a small take up, but a year later users of the service rapidly grow as Covid-19 pandemic swept through the city, the charity’s founder Paul Nilson told the ECHO in December.
Just under 100 households are now fed by the weekly free food offering which takes place on Wednesdays. The need in the area was further drawn into the spotlight late last year when fresh census data showed that Team Oasis on Park Hill Road is at the centre of some of the most deprived streets in the city.
