This normally takes place in our foodbank centres or within our dedicated office team, as well as providing signposting sheets that have gone into every food parcel. We have heard positive stories from clients of support that has helped them when they have contacted organisations on the sheet. We have continued our partnership with Citizen's Advice Medway to provide accessible advice at our Centres for clients. We have been able to jointly appoint Foodbank Advisers who are working towards financial inclusion for our clients with significant financial gains already being seen for a number of clients, meaning that they may not need foodbank support in the future. This has been financed for a total of 3 year5 through a grant from Trussell. Over this financial year, Medway Foodbank has received over 90560kg of food donations and has distributed over 100,197kg to the needy. Over the last financial year that represent5 a 1.0% decrease on the last financial year in food being donated. During 2023-24 the foodbank had to purchase 9637kg of food stock to meet the demand.
