North Wales Food Poverty Alliance
The aims of the Alliance are: to raise awareness of the issues surrounding food poverty across North Wales and the impact on individuals, families, children and communities and the organisations that serve them; to gather concerned people and organisations together to sign-up to the NWFPA Charter; to share ideas and solutions; and to gain commitment and agree a collective approach drawing on all of our resources and expertise.
