Churches in Oldham provided breakfasts to local young people
As the summer holidays draw to a close, churches in Oldham have provided more than 1,500 breakfasts to local young people.
Vicar Paul Monk said, "We have lost count of the number of different nationalities represented at our breakfasts, probably in excess of 20."
The holiday club has been open every Monday to Thursday. It was funded by Near Neighbours, First Choice Homes Oldham and St Barnabas' Youth Club, which is itself funded by the Lottery.
