Last year 202>2024 we fed a record 57,(KKI people. This year, the figure is likely to exceed 60.OLM). This 15 the limrt of people we can feed. and we have started to have to tum clients away when our numbers exed 100 on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. and eXed$ IEilon Tuesday5. This is regrettable, but it does mean that we are able to regular feed over I,(MX) people a week. wlthout runnlng out of essential foodstuffs. Our clients remain a diverse group of people. we have a large number of street homeless and refugees in hostels without cooking facilities. We also have a si8nificant number of elderly people who are using our services. We also have local families with several children. Lo8lstlcs We are currently supported by Food Bank Aid, who give us approx. 2 tonnes of food a week, accounting for £250,000 of food. We are also 5UPPOrted by Felix 8(Kikg per week and fjty Harvest I tonne of food per week. Clty Harvest glve us a lot of fruit and veg and some ready meals, meat and dairy products. and Foodbank aid give us some Fruit and veg and a lot of ambient food, so our dients get a more balanced diet. We also spend approximatety £8,1)J>£IO,C(Kl per week on food. We have also been using Fell5 multibank, but we are unsure rf it is expedient to contlnue to do so. Volunteers Volunteers are the lrfeblood of Euston Foodbank. We have around 50 volunteers. who cover the four sessions. Training of new volunteers tskes Pla every 6-8 weeks. to ensu we always have enough people to run a session, - we need a minimum of 10 people. Corporate Support In line with other Charities, V made a decision to charge for our corporate volunteers. This has worked well. with only a few companies not able to pay the fee. Wewaive the fee for educational establishments such as Maria Fidelis school, Kings College, UCL And
companies who have given us large or regular donations in the past- Watches of Switserland, G-Re5earch, BMJ. We have two cornpanies, Trade desk and Wa55erman music, who come and do on evening session once a month.- Trade Desk support us with donations, and Wasserman Muslc have donated £51JJ). This seems to be working well, we have built up a small but constant stream of fundi nearly enough to pay for our oirtBoin8s on fo¢XI. We realised that applylng for.fundlng is a significant role in Itself, and we are planning to employ a part tlme fundraiser as well as a part-tlme sodal medlalsesslons cwrdinator due to a large grant from the Trussell Trust. JJ
Supportlng clients In addition to having acce55 to food, our dients have access to different types of suPrt whlle they are at the foodbank: Citizens Advice twice a Month Age Concern once a month Clothes Bank- once a week on dlfferent days Health professionals doing vaccinations. blood pressure height and weight checks. Doctors with Vaxi-Taxi health- Two doctors a Dentist and a Psychiatrist with other health 5UPPOrt. Dlgitsl Ilteracy.
