The Feeding Birkenhead organisation is also involved in Number 7, a not for profit Citizens Supermarket, Cafe & Advice Hub.
Its aim is to help low-income people whose circumstances may be pushing them towards food poverty. The citizens supermarket is stocked with surplus stock from bigger retailers we aim to be at least a third cheaper and in most case’s even more and is membership based only.
Membership gains you access to the supermarket and the cafe subject to membership criteria which can be found on their facebook page @numberSevenBirkenhead.
