THE GREAT YARMOUTH PATHWAY 

The objects of the Great Yarmouth Pathway are the relief of poverty and social isolation for the public benefit in the borough of Great Yarmouth for those who are experiencing difficulties such as (but not limited to), displacement, homelessness, addiction, unemployment & mental health issues. This is chiefly done through the provision of a free, hot lunch three days a week.
