Running services such as a supply of surplus food from the Vape Bar in the town square [as of Tuesday, July 23], the charity will also be helping the community from its new base at 10 St George's Terrace.

Sarah Sharpe, the CEO of MAACG, said: "We are looking for donations please of good quality clothing, ornaments, jewellery, toys, small household furniture, and small electricals.

"If anybody has any of these items please drop off on Saturday between 10am and 12 noon - money raised will be going towards helping local people."

The charity is also asking residents for advice on how they can best support the surrounding area, with people encouraged to pop in for a visit to discuss the group's plans.
