Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
Let’s Feed Brum is a volunteer-led charity that supports people living on the streets of Birmingham and those at risk of homelessness. This is done through a number of ways, including daily walkabouts to the city’s rough sleeping ‘hotspots’ where food, drink and essential supplies are handed out, alongside advice that signposts people to the right support. This is then supported by two weekly breakfast events and a monthly visit to a local hostel, where this service is provided on site. The charity also collects, collates and distributes food to over 40 food banks, hostels, homeless shelters and other accommodation providers every single week. In addition to an LFB Chatline, which people in need of support can call and be directed to the right charity, project or healthcare professional. |

Achievements and performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Over the past 12 months, Let’s Feed Brum has continued to grow its operations and, therefore, impact on the people of Birmingham. The charity has increased the number of daily deliveries that it makes, now providing food to over 40 food banks, community centres, homeless hostels and shelters. In addition, the charity has seen a shift away from its evening soup kitchen during Covid and instead expanded its walkabout operations, now adding Sunday evenings meaning that the charity goes out every single night, and also expanding its footprint beyond the city centre. Alongside this, the past year has seen Let’s Feed Brum start two regular weekly breakfast events at Birmingham Cathedral, as well as a monthly visit to a local hostel to deliver the same event but on-site. At these events, the team of volunteers hand out food, drink and essential supplies. Outreach workers, healthcare professionals, housing officers and other support services are invited regularly to deliver their support directly to those who need it. Let’s Feed Brum has also launched a new LFB Chatline, where people can call every day to get the help and guidance that they need. |
|
|---|---|---|---|
The growth in Let’s Feed Brum’s operations has seen the charity also take on a new distribution centre of its own, which is a base for everything the charity delivers. This industrial unit acts as a charity office, storage and operational hub for the daily food deliveries and walkabouts. Homelessness can never be solved by one charity or organisation; it is a complex issue, with complex people who have complex needs. That said, Let’s Feed Brum is very much part of the solution in Birmingham; working every day to serve and support around 40 rough sleepers in the evening, over 50 people at risk of homelessness every breakfast event, and up to 100 people at the monthly hostel visits. This, in addition to the 40 food deliveries each week to food banks and shelters, and the LFB Chatline, which tends to receive around 10 calls each week. LFB has been awarded the QVAS Award, presented in October 2022.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF LET'S FEED BRUM LIMITED
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Let's Feed Brum Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 28 February 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
