Channel 5 News Visited BALCProject Before Election In NI

Walk INN Food Bank is in heart of vulnerable people in Belfast Lisburn. Channel 5 News visited to see how our Charity continue to support those in need with support of volunteers members of our community.

This is not an easy experience for anyone to be going through, but it’s particularly tough on our most vulnerable residents who are having to isolate distance themselves from often already limited networks they have.

Many will already have help from family, friends, carers or neighbours. But there are others that do not, these are people we need to make sure we reach so that they can get support they may urgently need – even if it’s just someone to talk to.

It is, first foremost, logical to involve people affected in decisions about their lives. Working with most vulnerable supporting their proposed solutions can increase effectiveness of initiatives by ensuring interventions are appropriate for local context needs.
