Annual Report & Accounts For the year ending 31st October 2021
FOREWORD BY THE CHAIR OF TRUSTEES:
Throughout the year we have continued to be blessed by the generosity of those who support us, whether that be with food or financial contributions. Without this support we could not provide the service we do for those in Norwich and the surrounding area. So, I want to begin this Foreword by thanking all the organisations and individuals who have been so kind with their support. It is greatly appreciated by all the Trustees.
The period covered by this report saw us at various stages of lockdown, and it was only in the Autumn that our Distribution Centres began to re-open. Also, the warehouse continued to operate on a socially distanced basis. I therefore want to thank all our volunteers for their patience and the way they have continued to adapt to the new ways of working. So, to all our volunteers, thank you.
Looking back to last year, the major development within the foodbank was the decision to participate in the Trussell Trust’s Pathfinder project. The overall aim of this project is to reduce the need for foodbanks and for us in Norwich this involves, amongst other things, ensuring (through Citizen’s Advice) the availability of specialist financial advice to those we help; working more closely with local churches so that they are confident and equipped to help with achieving this objective; closer working with statutory agencies and charities; and engaging with those with a lived experience of food poverty in order to understand how we can be more effective in the support we seek to provide. This is all the more important given the increasing pressures on household spending and the devastating consequences that these can bring.
I want to recognise the continuing hard work and commitment of Hannah our Project Manager, Keith, our Warehouse Manager, Iain, our Project Officer, Rachel our Administrator and all those who volunteer in the office.
And finally I want to thank all my fellow Trustees for their work and support. They make my role so much easier.
To everyone, a massive and heartfelt Thank You.
Keir Hounsome
On behalf of the Trustees.
RELATIONSHIP WITH TRUSSELL TRUST:
We continue to operate as a media centre for the Trussell Trust, being a trusted foodbank for local and national press or media enquiries. We are among the thirty biggest Trussell Trust foodbanks nationally out of the network of 428, which relates to the number of people we are feeding annually and the amount of food donated and redistributed.
Due to COVID-19, the Trussell Trust National Conference was cancelled, but the Project Manager attended several online Norfolk cluster meetings during 2021. Trustees have attended various online Trussell meetings aimed at Trustee boards, which have been useful for networking and sharing good practice.
We continue to be part of the Trussell Trust’s ‘Pathfinder Project’, exploring how to move closer to a future without the need for foodbanks. To aid with this, the appointment of a Project Officer (Iain) was made in March 2021 and there have been several meetings online with other Pathfinder foodbanks and with the Trussell Pathfinder team.
Norwich foodbank maintains an excellent relationship with neighbouring foodbanks in Norfolk and Suffolk, as well as with the Trussell Trust head office and the Regional Area Manager.
In the period of 1[st] April 2021 – 31[st] March 2022, Trussell Trust foodbanks in Norfolk distributed 23,302 parcels. Within that figure, Norwich foodbank gave 8,537 parcels, 36.6% of the county’s total.
AREA SERVED:
Norwich foodbank supports local people in crisis, in the Greater Norwich area, covering approximately 479 square miles. During the majority of our financial year 2020/21 we operated out of the warehouse and office only, with all 10 distribution centres closed due to COVID-19 restrictions. Our centre in Lakenham opened in June and a few others began opening in September 2021 (city centre, Catton and Heartsease). By the 2[nd] October, 8 centres had safely re-opened. We continued to utilise strong links with churches and volunteers in the Loddon and Poringland areas that hold emergency food parcels who were very supportive throughout the change in service, delivering to local households referred to us. We also added in a delivery team in Wymondham and Lakenham during the early part of 2021 due to offers of help from volunteers, churches and local councillors.
Clients are issued a voucher by a care agency or care professional for 3 days of food. The warehouse was staffed with volunteers Monday – Friday to maintain the workload and social distancing guidelines and professionals could attend on behalf of their clients to collect food. A few of our busiest care partners hold food parcels on their premises to distribute to clients, still using the voucher system, although many were closed for face-to-face contact during the first part of our financial year.
A recipient said, ‘Thank you so much for all our food … In fact thank you doesn’t sound grateful enough! We are in tears, overwhelmed by people’s generosity and the kindness you have shown.’
The foodbank office is staffed by volunteers Monday - Thursday 9am – 1pm and the Project Manager has an on-call mobile which is available 9am – 5pm Monday – Friday, excluding Bank Holidays. During the pandemic, the office was supported by a number of volunteers working remotely.
FOOD COLLECTION:
The majority of food received is from public donations through collection points across Greater Norwich. Over 134 tonnes (with an estimated value of £235,837) came into the warehouse during the financial year 2020/21, a 19% decrease on 2019/20. Donations came from just under 250 different donors including churches, individuals, schools and groups; significantly down on the previous year, but several have switched to financial giving.
We are extremely grateful to the Trussell Trust and Tesco for the financial top-up we receive, based on donations made, equating to around £1,500 per quarter.
In January 2021 we paused several large supermarket collection points after a very busy Christmas period and this worked well and restarted in February with no issues. We held an ‘in-person’ in-store collection at Tesco Blue Boar in Sprowston in July 2021 as part of the Trussell Trust and FareShare national summer campaign. Customers and staff were very supportive donating over 500kg and £259 in cash.
We have continued to receive bulk donations, via Bankuet, an online charity that buys in bulk so each £1 spent buys more than £1 of produce. This has encouraged new donor support and ensures we receive what is most needed at the time. We have 46 monthly donors through Bankuet giving collectively £1,180.
Morrisons at Riverside (pictured) and Morrisons Old Catton implemented ‘Foodbank Pick Up Bag’ in the summer of 2021 – we give the store’s Community Champion a list of our most needed items each week and they put a few of these products in a bag, price it, and customers take one to the checkout to purchase and then donate. It has worked very well, ensuring we get what we need and saving the customer time finding specific items in the shop.
FOOD DISTRIBUTION:
In our financial year 2020/21, over 133 tonnes of food went out of our warehouse. 83% of this was in the form of 3-day food parcels, toiletries and extra food items. 17% went to other Norfolk foodbanks and projects.
Following the UK lockdown and COVID-19 related restrictions, on 30[th] March 2020, Norwich foodbank moved from a collection model to a 100% delivery model; taking food parcels and requested extras direct to the client’s address. Deliveries were made 6 days a week, on weekday afternoons and Saturday mornings. This continued until June 2021, when distribution centres began to open up one by one to trial safe collections and to see how volunteers and clients felt. From 2[nd] October 2021, all centres were opened and the last planned home deliveries took place.
Home deliveries included requested toiletries, baby items and pet food and, when available, fresh items too. During the pandemic, FareShare donations continued to be received.

CLIENTS:
For the financial year ending 31[st] October 2021, Norwich foodbank gave out food parcels to enable 10,612 people (including 3,709 children) to be fed for 3 days each. The overall total is a 28% decrease on the same period 2019/20, which saw a significant increase due to the pandemic causing a lot more people to be in need due to employment, shielding and childcare issues. The number of children is a 31% decrease in the same period. Please see ‘CHANGES AND CHALLENGES’ for more insight into why we have seen less demand.
With regards to the referral reasons for clients in the Norwich area, ‘low income’ accounted for 44.5% of all referrals in our financial year 2020/21 (a rise of 11% on 2019/20), benefit delays were 8% of the total (a 2% decrease), debt 6% (a 3% decrease) and benefit changes were 5% (a 3% decrease). We also received a significant proportion of ‘other’ referrals which accounted for 21% of all referral reasons. This is due to complex or unknown issues, in the main relating to COVID-19.
During the financial year, 51% of those we helped were of working age 25-64 years old and only 1.8% were over the age of 65 years old. 49% of households helped were single adults aged at least 17 years old.
For Norwich foodbank, in a six month period during 2021, 64% of clients were given a food parcel once, 23% twice, 6% three times and 5% more than three times.
‘Thanks to you not only do we have food but treats as well! Treats that we haven’t been able to afford for months. I can’t put into words the relief we feel that we have food in the cupboard and we don’t have to worry for a while. We are all three of us just about to tuck into hot soup and fresh bread, we feel truly blessed.’ Foodbank recipient, via email
PARTNERS:
We have over 330 partner agencies who can issue vouchers to clients they are working with and 4,848 vouchers were issued within this financial year. South Norfolk Council, Norwich Citizen’s Advice, Baseline, Change Grow Live, Help Through Hardship and Probation issued the most vouchers in this period, enabling 3,649 people to receive food parcels. 496 vouchers were issued by ourselves, enabling 1,131 people to be fed; these vouchers account for self-referrals and agencies who aren’t signed up to the Trussell Trust’s online e-referral system.
Following a successful joint bid between Norwich, Kings Lynn and Hunstanton foodbanks to employ 1.5 FTE Citizen’s Advice workers through Norfolk CA, a full time worker was employed in October 2020 to work exclusively in Norwich. Referrals were received and actioned over the phone or via online referral system NCAN (Norfolk Community Advice Network). As distribution centres opened up, our worker attended in-person to provide advice and support to those accessing the foodbank. In the period following this report, a funding bid was submitted to Trussell Trust for two further posts – a Shelter advisor for housing and debt and a British Red Cross worker for advocacy and befriending support.
We have continued as an advocate of Christian charity Acts 435, to enable us to post requests for support for specific items for clients (anonymously) which donors can choose to donate towards. In this period, we were successful with 13 requests; including for a new fridge, school uniform, work boots and a wardrobe.
SUPPORTERS and DONORS:
There have been countless new and growing supporters during this year, including private individuals, churches, companies and other charities.
Between March 2020 and August 2021, Aviva PLC funded 50 daily copies of the Eastern Daily Press to be included with each delivery. We also received bags of bread and cakes from BreadSource, a local artisan bakery which were given out daily with food parcels. Bramerton Christadelphians gave us regular gifts of fresh items including eggs, potatoes, apples and carrots. We received specific gifts for Christmas and gave all clients a local £5 supermarket voucher, as well as fresh fruit, vegetables and treats during December 2020.
Smurfit Kappa have continued to support us with regular donations of boxes to pack food parcels in and increased their giving during the COVID-19 pandemic for which we are very grateful.
During the course of this year, we received food donations from 79 churches, benefices and religious groups, 32 businesses and 34 schools, as well as from supermarket collection points and private individuals. We have seen a significant increase in standing orders and other regular giving – through PayPal and Local Giving – with over 120 regular financial supporters. Our quarterly Prayer and News letters go out to over 200 people and we have good links with many local churches who support us with donations, gifts and prayer.
We are incredibly grateful to all who support us in a number of ways. This financial year we have had the opportunity to speak at 3 events – a local Women’s Institute, a Rotary club and an East of England Coop live online event.
As so many church buildings closed during 2020, many donors converted their regular food donation to a financial one. Since 2019, we have seen a 102% increase in new direct debit donors, increasing regular monthly gifts to over £2,000 (excluding Gift Aid). This shows the incredible generosity of so many and we are thankful to all those who give.
‘In view of the various lockdowns with pubs being closed (and almost everything else) I am saving a reasonable amount of money. I feel I must share some of it with people who are not so fortunate’. Donor
‘It’s been some years now that we at Bramerton Christadelphian church have been collecting for the foodbank and we have been supporting FISH throughout the pandemic and the café in Nelson Street since it re-opened. God willing, while there is the need, we shall continue to support you where we can. With all the problems that we are all facing today as Christians we feel we should help others and thank you all for giving us that opportunity.’ Donor
PROJECTS:
FISH – Food (and Fun) In School Holidays was launched in May 2014 providing a free hot meal and free fun activities to low-income families. In 2020/21 four separate clubs took place.
Based on capacity and volunteer availability, FISH looked different in each location. Mousehold, Taverham, Wymondham and Mile Cross took referrals from local schools and arranged home deliveries of packed lunch, dinner recipe kits and activity packs. Thorpe, arranged by school staff, did in-person provision with outdoor meals and activities.
Christmas – Since 2013, we have been a conduit between people wishing to give and people going without at Christmas. In 2020, we trialled a digital Giving Tree, where requests were listed on a website and donors could choose which gifts they would buy and drop off at the warehouse. This worked very well with 284 individuals (children and parents) listed and all were ‘taken’! We received a lot of knitted items (jumpers, hats and scarves) from the Norfolk Knitters and various other donations from groups and private individuals. Gifts were distributed via seven different agencies / partners including children’s centres and young people’s services. Several donors pledged their support for future years too.
Energy Bank – This started in 2017 and supports clients with a one-off emergency gas / electricity payment, alongside a foodbank parcel. Funding was received from Norfolk Community Foundation for the winter months (November – March) but due to ongoing emergency demand, private donations funded ongoing energy payments throughout 2020. Gifts were given to 186 separate households totalling of £5,734. Funding has been secured for November 2021 onwards.
'We thank everybody for your care … Due to circumstances, we are a family with cash flow problems and therefore not enough money to go around. It has been eat or heat. Thanks to your generosity we can now do both. When things get better we will repay your kindness. God bless you all' Recipient
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:
We had just two different groups in the warehouse during the financial year, due to COVID restrictions – a primary school year 3 class from Erpingham (see photo) and a childminder with three of her group. We have been to speak to a year 6 class in Bawburgh school as part of their Religious Education topic looking at people who help others in the community.
We have had several offers for support in our warehouse when restrictions allow and expect to be able to run shifts for these groups in the financial year 2021-2022.
We continue to enjoy positive and longstanding relationships with many local supermarkets who have helped to boost low-stocked items when appropriate, as well as providing gift vouchers and support to FISH clubs during the year.
CHANGES AND CHALLENGES:
As this report is being written all restrictions in England have been lifted and there is a ‘living with COVID-19’ plan in place. Our service provision dramatically changed in March 2020 and continued during this reporting period, but we are seeing a shift both nationally and locally to pre-covid life. The challenge this brings is to not ‘go back’ to how things were, but to ensure we are moving forward—reviewing, refreshing and adapting our ways of working to be both safe and effective in our work.
We have seen a rise in the amount of pop-up foodbanks across our area; run by churches, community groups and some by individuals. A small amount have closed during this reporting period, but some are continuing provision. This has brought challenges in relation to our recipient’s expectations and most don’t operate a referral process which may result in the underlying issues not being addressed. However, we want to acknowledge the incredible work of the community by meeting a vital need for so many who are struggling to afford the essentials.
PUBLIC BENEFIT:
We indicate throughout this report, how during the period covered, we have applied our funds in furtherance of our charitable objectives for the public benefit.
We have complied with the duty in the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA:
We continue to receive positive feedback and engagement on our social media content and, to date, have over 3,400 followers on Facebook, over 2,600 on Twitter and over 1,500 on Instagram. We continue to run our website as part of ‘Network Norfolk’ and this includes at least one article each month appearing on their front page. We are very grateful to Keith Morris and his team at Network Norfolk for their support with our website. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we received a lot more messages through our facebook account than in previous times, asking how to get help or where to donate.
VOLUNTEERS:
During our financial year 2020/21 we were supported by approximately 180 volunteers. At the start of the pandemic in March 2020 nearly 50% of our regular volunteers had to shield, had concern over meeting with others, or had childcare commitments. Thankfully we had an overwhelming response from the general public in relation to volunteering including those who had been furloughed and those who were involved in other aspects of our work (i.e. distribution centres) and were able to change roles. As distribution centres re-opened from June 2021 volunteers returned or changed roles, for which we are very grateful.
We were unable to hold our annual volunteer celebration evening for the second year running. However a weekly update email to all volunteers – active or not involved actively – from the Project Manager began in April 2020 and this has continued in order to help volunteers have a better understanding of all that the charity is doing, including client feedback and news.
A local artist was commissioned to create ‘thank you’ stones for all active volunteers during 2021 as a token of appreciation. Trussell Trust gave us bars of Cadburys chocolate to distribute to volunteers during December 2020.
LOOKING FORWARD:
We join with the Trussell Trust in their vision to see an end to the need for foodbanks. However, with the numbers we are currently supporting and the knowledge of other food based support within our foodbank’s operational area, it seems unlikely that this will happen within the next few years. For this reason, we will continue to both provide emergency food and other essentials (including toiletries and Energy Bank payments) to those in need in Greater Norwich and seek other options and partnerships to enable people to move out of their crisis as quickly, smoothly and easily as possible.
As explained in ‘PARTNERS’ we will continue to look at other ways of supporting those who come to us. In the period immediately following this report, we applied for and received funding for two new case workers – one with Shelter and one with British Red Cross – both employed by the relevant charity but to work exclusively with and for our clients. This will complement the Citizens Advice worker we have in place and provide more holistic and wide-ranging support to those we serve with the aim of reducing repeat visits to the foodbank and building more resilience.
As England emerged from restrictions and lockdowns during this reporting period, we have adopted guidance from Trussell Trust and the government to manage safely the re-opening of distribution centres. Our risk assessments are reviewed periodically.
There are plans for a number of social supermarkets in the Norwich area – in Lakenham, in Mile Cross and in the NR5 area – which will benefit those who are using the foodbank regularly, those who are ‘just about managing’ and those who don’t use a a foodbank due to the social stigma. We are looking forward to working collaboratively with these new projects to best serve our collective clients.

| Incoming resources with | Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) |
| related expenditure | the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA. |
| Grants and donations | Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional |
| entitlement to the resources. | |
| Tax reclaims on donations | Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to |
| and gifts | which they relate. |
| Contractual income and | This is only included in the SoFA once the related goods or services have been delivered. |
| performance related grants | |
| Gifts in kind | Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. |
| Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or | |
| distributed by the charity. | |
| Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when | |
| receivable. | |
| Donated services and | These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources |
| facilities | expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. |
| The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or | |
| facility received. | |
| Volunteer help | The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. |
| Investment income | This is included in the accounts when receivable. |
| Investment gains and losses | This includes any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from |
| revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. | |

| charity to pay out resources. | |
| Governance costs | Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of trustee |
| meetings and cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters. | |
| Grants with performance | Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service |
| conditions | or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the |
| grant has provided the specified service or output. | |
| Grants payable without | These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are |
| performance conditions | no conditions to be met relating to the grant which remain in the control of the charity. |
| Support Costs | Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a |
| basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per | |
| capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. | |
| ASSETS | |
| Tangible fixed assets for use | These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £500. They |
| by charity | are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt. |
| Investments | Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange are valued at market value at the year |
| end. Other investment assets are included at trustees' best estimate of market value. | |
| Stocks and work in progress | These are valued at the lower of cost or market value. |

Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the
-
responsibilities of accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not trustees and required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 examiner (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
-
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general examiner’s Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination statement includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my examiner's attention (other than that disclosed below ) statement* 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or
