when iuests obtsin food p•rcels and h•¥e a hot meal, and Monthy evenin8$ where they can
enjoy coffee/tea and a chat. ChJr Senlor Support Co-ordlnator Is avallable for ad¥lce and support
The number of meals and f￿d parcels prowded to our iuests is very simllar to last ￿ar- and
•pptar5 to be stabilising after an increase post<ovid and the cost of INini crisis.
Mark. our Senior Support Cwrdin•tor. helps around 25-35 peo per week with issues such as
debt, homelessness, health. mental health and general guidance. He helps them with form-fillin8 in
and telephone ulls. and liaising with benefits and other agenaes. Mark often supports our guests at
external appointments Such as tribuna15, job centres. hospitals and housing associations.

4iLestyJw %￿#s. L4vu4ry zais Wel4￿J¢￿ as a member of staff, to
supeThii5e the Food Bank. This has helped us to run the food ￿nk In a more cost*ffective way, and
it has also given Stephanie more time to strengthen the volunteer team. As well as adding to the
skills and number of our regularvolunteers. we have also welcomed Volunteer teams from local
businesses, further strengthening our ties with the community.

team of staff, trustees and volunteers. This is the first event of this kind that we have undertaken
and we were very pleased with the supp)rt we receiN*d, particularly from the Meth¢)dist churches
