THE meals service provided by Frankston Life and Frankston Churches Breakfast Club is back up and running after a period of inactivity.
The service kicked off again on 1 October, with meals to be served from a new venue at Frankston Chisholm between 7am and 8am from Monday to Thursday.
Dunkley MP Chris Crewther said “from November 2017 I called together a committee of local organisations to try to bring back the meals service for the homeless, vulnerable and those in need, that was previously run by CityLife and the Frankston Churches Breakfast Club.”
“After a number of meetings with the group, I then went out to Dandenong to approach new CEO of Chisholm Institute, Dr Rick Ede, to see if Chisholm would consider providing a site at their Frankston campus for the service, with a mutual benefit of involving Chisholm students in the long-term. I was pleased that he was very open to the idea.
“I must thank Chisholm Institute, Frankston Life, Frankston Churches Breakfast Club, SHAC Seaford Housing Action Coalition, Seaford Community Committee, Theodora’s Cheerful Givers, That’s The Thing About Fishing, Frankston City Council, Life-Gate Inc, John Paul College, Rotary Peninsula 2.0 and Community Support Frankston for their joint hard effort with me to get this crucial local service up and running again.”
