We are a distribution depot for Loaves & Fishes Community Food Bank which is financially supported by Brechin members. Our Brechin4Action Team has hosted numerous workshops and programs seeking to explore the revelations of the Truth and Reconciliation movement and to develop relationships with our First Nations neighbours. Also this team has developed and initiated a Climate Action Plan and we promote various programs workshops and projects seeking to understand and ultimately reduce climate change.
