Our Mission:
to meet practical needs in our city
The Well is a Christian charity with a passion to show Jesus’ heart of love for the poor across our City.
We provide food parcels and essentials for those who are in desperate need.
You can help us to help them.
The Need
Today in the City of Wolverhampton there are families and single people struggling to buy food and other essentials.
For people on low incomes, a sudden crisis can mean going hungry.
Our Impact
Since the project started in 2006, we have delivered food and toiletry parcels to 100,000+* people. With the amazing support of our generous supporters we deliver food parcels to over 120 homes each week. (*updated August 2022)

HANNAH’S STORY
I am hoping you can help, I am absolutely desperate. I lost my job two months ago and am still waiting for a benefit payment as my last wage payment went completely on debts and arrears.
I really don't know what to do. I have survived the past 4 days on one loaf of bread. I am desperate and you are my last hope....
…..and after being signposted to an agency who made a referral to us
…I just can't thank you enough. I know how valuable each item is…
Thank you so much again xxx
