"As you can see overall fed is on the increase year on year.
2021-2022 was a 48.5% increase
2022-2023 was a 22.6% increase."

"The demand increases, yet our food donations do not match the increase in need. We find ourselves purchasing items to ensure that our community receives a complete three day parcel. In total in 2023 we gave out 54,639 meals (3 meals a day for 3 days)."

"We provide a three day emergency food parcel and each contains three meals a day as well as fresh bread, and enough fresh fruit and veg to supplement one meal. We also provide essentials such as toiletries, nappies and sanitary products and also we provide pet food."

"We would not be able to do this work without the support of the local community"
