DIAL at the Foodbank – is a project with Leeds South and East Foodbank so that foodbank users can access disability advice and support within foodbank sessions and through follow-up work to overcome their challenges, income shocks and financial crises in the longer term.

Happiness Cafe sessions – are for informally local disabled people and individuals with health conditions in a safe, supported environment for a cuppa, a chat and to build social connections and support networks.

They are also an opportunity to access information, advice and support with disability issues.
