Achieving huge success of the Christmas soup kitchen, a British Muslim charity cooperated with Birmingham Central Mosque to set up a permanent food bank to help the city homeless all year around.

“Birmingham is an amazing city that thrives on diversity and together as one community we can unite as one to tackle poverty,” organizer and community activist KasimChoudry told Indy 100 during the weekend.

The initiative was taken to help the homeless during holidays, a time where many existing services were closed. The idea of the food bank followed the huge success of a festive soup kitchen launched by Birmingham Central Mosque during the Christmas time in 2015
