## **Objectives and activities**
Into the Community is a Registered Charity no: 1084287, governed by its Declaration of Trust adopted on 1st September 2000. Management of Into the Community is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected in accordance with the Declaration of Trust.
Into the Community seeks to benefit the citizens of Milton Keynes through the provision of food distribution centres and a parent and toddler group.
The objects of the Trust are:
“To promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of Milton Keynes in the County of Buckinghamshire and its surrounding area through the provision of facilities for leisure time occupation in the interests of social welfare and to advance the education of the public (including without limitation children of school and pre-school age) and relieve poverty through the provision of information, advice and vocational training.”

## **INTO THE COMMUNITY**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
## **Financial review, review of activities and future developments**
The Statement of Financial Activities for the year is presented on page 6 of the financial statements.
Total charitable incoming resources equated to £600,970. The Food Bank received a total of £574,657 in the form of food donations (£196,501) and cash donations (£378,156) during 2020 whilst the Parent and Toddler group received a total of £238 in the form of subscriptions. Bank interest received amounted to £811 whilst £25,264 was received through gift aid. The profit on the activities of Into The Community amounted to £305,525. Governance costs accounted for 0.7% of total expenditure.
Donations, grants, and gifts in support of The Food Bank or Parent and Toddler group are restricted specifically for use by the project they were given for. Where individual donations, grants, and gifts are restricted it is the policy of Into The Community that these funds are utilised strictly in line with the stipulations of the donor.
It is an endeavour of the trustees to have £60,000 in reserve to remunerate staff and pay all monthly bills.
Into The Community operates The Food Bank providing local families and individuals with essential food supplies at a time when they need them most, covering the days or sometimes weeks before other parts of the social care infrastructure can come into play. To qualify for help, families or individuals need to be referred to The Food Bank by one of its many referral agents across the city of Milton Keynes.
Agents include Health Visitors, Doctors Surgeries, Probation Service and Social Services etc. ITC also operates a parent and toddler group which seeks to provide a facility for parents within the local community meet and interact with other parents, find support, and build friendships.
In deciding what activities the charity should undertake, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and conclude that ITC’s objectives, aims, and activities provide identifiable benefits to the public and that these benefits are not unreasonably restricted in any way.
## **Food Bank**
2020 was an extraordinary year for everyone, and MK Food Bank was no exception – across the year we distributed over 29,500 parcels, more than double the number given out in the previous year. This was made possible through a partnership with MK Council and a significant grant from MK Community Foundation, alongside a very large donation of food from DEFRA and the overwhelming generosity of Milton Keynes businesses, churches and community groups.
The impacts of the COVID 19 pandemic hit the Food Bank very quickly. As well as the twofold blow of a massive soar in demand coupled with a sharp decline in donations, other immediate implications included the closure of a number of referral agencies and serving centres, making access to food more difficult, and the decision of many volunteers to shield.
## **Council partnership**
We reacted quickly, and in late March entered into a partnership with MK Council called Food Bank Xtra. The partnership aims to be flexible, agile and responsive, with its key objective being to work together to enable the supply of food parcels to the community to meet the unprecedented increased demand as a result of coronavirus. The partnership has enabled easier access to food during lockdown through a dedicated helpline and new serving centres where they were most needed across the borough. We moved into temporary larger premises and accessed redeployed Council staff to meet increased demand.
## **Access to food**
The closure of the majority of agencies that referred to the Food Bank eg schools, doctors surgeries and support helplines presented a pressing problem of access to food. To address this we introduced a dedicated helpline, staffed by Family Centre practitioners, and used MKC and Food Bank communications platforms to get the message out to MK residents. This enabled us to continue to means test, and those needing food to request help from their homes. Having a single means of access also allowed us to react more quickly and flexibly and to collect data to inform future operations. The helpline has been a success, taking more than 7,500 calls in the period from April to December.

## **INTO THE COMMUNITY**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
We set up additional collection centres in locations that matched MKC data on deprivation, mainly covering the six postcode areas in which 80% of our users live (MK6, MK12, MK3, MK14, MK2, MK13). We regularly review usage at these centres and apply a flexible approach, opening new centres where needed.
As lockdown resulted in a large number of people shielding or self-isolating in their homes, we also set up a same-day home delivery service, run by ward councillors on a rota system. This was ceased at the end of August, but upon entering full lockdown again, we resumed a limited home delivery service, using community partners and applying more rigorous eligibility criteria.
## **People and premises**
A large number of our mainly retired volunteers chose to shield when COVID hit the UK. As the work of the Food Bank was largely undertaken by up to 70 volunteers a week, this had an immediate effect. The MKC partnership enabled existing volunteers to be joined by over 200 redeployed Council workers and 35 Councillors on a rota basis. We also started to welcome supported employees back into the
Food Bank in our splitting operation in summer, working with three individuals with learning disabilities on 6- week placements.
At the start of 2020, it was already clear that we were outgrowing our premises in Stacey Bushes. The introduction of social distancing measures made it impossible to continue operations there. Within days of initial conversations with MKC we moved into a new temporary home at Saxon Court, enjoying a much larger footprint for storage, warehouse operations and distribution, and retaining Stacey Bushes for donation sorting. In 2021 we will move into a larger warehouse in Kiln Farm, funded by the Council.
## **Food supply and funding**
In the early weeks of the pandemic, people became sick or were told to shield or self-isolate, they lost work and financial security, and the most vulnerable in society lost their support networks as everyone tried to adapt. This contributed to a huge increase in demand - rising from 250 parcels per week to over 1,000 in the first 4 weeks - and public donations dropped, meaning we had to buy food in bulk for the first time. We were able to fund these bulk purchases with large grants from MK Council and MK Community Foundation, as well as generous support from many individual and corporate supporters. Later we formed a partnership with Fareshare, through their operational arm in Milton Keynes, SOFEA, and benefitted from 230 pallets of food from their agreement with DEFRA. This was made possible by John Lewis and Partners, who gave us the use of an 18-tonne truck and driver every week to collect and deliver this food to our Saxon Court warehouse.
Following the initial drop in donations, due to food shortages in supermarkets, community group, church and school closures, support picked up again and support from the community went from strength to strength – from grants and food donations from local businesses to street collections organised via Whatsapp, and received over half a million food items in donations from the public alone.
## **Additional support to ‘harder to reach communities’.**
These combined sources of support have enabled us not only to meet the increased demands for our 3-day emergency food parcels, but also to directly target ‘harder-to-reach' communities such as the elderly, black and ethnic minority communities, and vulnerable young people. We have done this through partnering with other charities, community groups and organisations who have direct links into these groups. Wherever possible, we have also worked with others in the community who were distributing food and other support to their residents, supporting community fridges and cooking programmes and town and parish council delivery services.
## **The future**
A year on from the start of the crisis, while testing and vaccination programmes and financial assistance may have eased the chaos, the financial impacts of the crisis are still very keenly felt. More people are contacting us for the first time, for many reasons related directly or indirectly to COVID. In 2021, our first priority will be to maintain a more than adequate food supply, as well as funds for essential storage, processing and distribution costs. To achieve this we will continue to develop mutually beneficial partnerships, collaborating widely across the sector and with corporate and public sector supporters. We will expand our reach to support broader, diverse initiatives, and we will review our processes and distribution to ensure that everyone who needs emergency food has access to it.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020**_
## _**Parent & Toddler Group**_
The group operates at MKCC within school term times. The majority of families who attend live on the local estate however we do have a number of families who come from all over Milton Keynes as well as from all different ethnic groups.
An average of 20 families attended the group each week during the first few months of 2020 highest attendance being 32 families during the first part of the year.
The format of the group has not changed we still have toys and equipment being made available for the children to play with each week, a simple craft provided for the children to undertake and then snack time before the group ends with some singing. The singing time remains as popular as ever with parents and children always fully engaged and in full voice.
The group was led once more by Carys Higham, with the help of Nicola Ritchie, building new friendships and relationships.
We had to close the Parent and Toddler group in March 2020 due to the national lockdown restrictions but maintained regular contact with families offering support through telephone conversations, Whatsapp and mobile text messages and our social media channels such as FaceBook.
The Parent and Toddler group remained closed until the 4[th] May 2021 when we opened our doors once again for no more than 15 families to meet together in line with Government guidelines. It has been great to see families reconnecting once more after a difficult year.
The group will continue to provide public benefit to each family that attends – providing an opportunity to meet together, to build friendships and for the toddlers to develop their social skills and gain self-confidence.

For 2020, there has been an updated assessment and re-evaluation of the methods and unit prices used to value food donated in, distributed to beneficiaries, and held as stock for future distribution to beneficiaries. This has taken into account the means by which food supplies are available to beneficiaries, consideration of the future dates of products held within stock, and a revised policy to arrive at the average cost of items distributed and held. In terms of volume, applying the same average cost used in 2019, this would have shown distributions, before stock movement adjustment, of £312,257 and £150,089 additional value in stock for future distribution, reflecting the increase in activity and distributions in the exceptional year.
