## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Food For Thought Daventry for the 1 August 2023 to 31 July 2024. The annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **a. Policies and objectives** 

The objects of the Company, as set out in its Memorandum of Association, are: 

We aim to alleviate hunger for children, families and the elderly in the Daventry District (now West Northants) by providing access to sustainable affordable food. This brings the community together in an environment where there is no stigma or embarrassment. 4,900 children (plus families) in Daventry District could need this help. We support schools, the local community and local businesses. 

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. 

## **b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives** 

The Company has set up several food larders. These are located in Woodford Halse, Daventry, Brixworth, Helmdon and Brackley. The charity also provides additional warm spaces opening during January to March.

## **(A charitable incorporated organisation)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

We are pleased to present these accounts and reflect on the tremendous impact our volunteers have made over the past year and can reaffirm our confidence in our ability to continue to deliver our vital services. 

## **a. Review of activities** 

The charity has concentrated on improving and developing its community larders this year, with large changes in the supply chain and funding successfully navigated by the team of larder leads. 

The six larders currently have approximately 18,000 visitors a year with 43,000 actual beneficiaries. 

This has been a major achievement to successfully reach such a huge number of households with access to affordable and sustainable food and household supplies whilst creating a friendly and approachable environment with no judgement. 

Our larders are also a conduit to other useful life-improving services for our communities, and provide a venue and a route to communicate with the residents who need to know more about available advice and support from the Council and charities. 

The larders have also been part of the Warm Spaces Initiative during the winter months, and in some cases segued into year-round sessions, improving connection and friendship in addition to practical heating support when needed. 

The larders will continue to face challenges with funding, logistics, storage and labour time this year but we are facing those challenges head on with a fantastic group of people. 

## **b. Celebrating our volunteers** 

Volunteers are the heartbeat of our organisation. Their diverse skills and unwavering commitment enable us to serve our communities effectively. Our volunteers undertake a variety of roles, each crucial to our mission, some of which are visible, and others in the background, and not just on the days that the larders are open.

## **(A charitable incorporated organisation)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

## **b. Celebrating our volunteers (continued)** 

From administrative support that ensures smooth operations; to on-call responders leaping into action to collect available food from sources; to regular weekly commitments to long-haul collections; to the behind the scenes stockists; to those front-of-house who directly engage with those we serve; to those who fundraise and track down supplies :  our volunteers are integral to everything we do, and all enhance our capacity to reach more individuals in need. 

## **c. Financial health and operational security** 

We are proud to confirm that our financial status remains robust. Through the generous contributions of our donors, successful grant applications, and diligent financial management, we have secured the nessary resources to support our operations for the upcoming year. Our financial reserves have been strategically enhanced, providing a stable foundation upon which we can commit to maintaining and improving our service and facilities as appropriate across our venues. 

As we look to the future, we recognise that demand for our services may continue to grow, even whilst our ultimate aim is to reduce the demand for support. However, thanks to our meticulous planning and the dedication of our volunteers and staff, our operational framework is flexible, allowing us to adapt to changes while maintaining the quality and consistency of our services. 

## **d. Looking ahead with confidence** 

As we move forward, we are excited about the prospect of deepening our impact within the community. We will continue to explore new ways to engage our volunteers, ensuring that they feel valued and supported in their roles. Together, we will respond to the emerging needs of those we serve, reinforcing the vital work we do. 

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of our volunteers, supporters and community members. Your belief in our mission drives us to achieve excellence, and we are inspired by your ongoing commitment to making a difference. 

Thank you for standing with us as we look to the future with hope and determination.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
