Here at the Ridgeway Centre, we are part of a network of churches involved in the Foodbank project. Foodbank provides emergency food supplies for those in need across the city. Here is an interesting, and rather disturbing article, about poverty in the city.

Did you know that the lateste statistics suggest that 1 in 5 children in Milton Keynes is living in poverty? That is a horrifying statistic in for a city that is seeminly affluent.
We accept donations to Foodbank here. So if you’d like to help by donating tinned or dried food, please get in touch.
