Misslon Ststement
We believe that a¢cess to food is a basic right. We believe that our community can help fill the
immediate needs of rural and remote households to reduce food povety, and Ihe Peninsula
Communlty Pod aims lo rnalch the reSou￿S donated with those in need in the community.
Alms and purpo80
The Peninsula Community Pod has grown out of organisations, St Davlds and Solva Fcod Pod
and Fishguard and Goodwck Food Support, and became a Charity in April 2021. It 1$ run and
managed entirely by unpaid volunteers. Our aim is lo reduce the impact of food poverty while
maintaining the well being and dignity of those supported. by providing regular ft￿)d support to
individual househotds for as long as required.
We cover an a￿2 of approximatèly 300 sq miles including many areas without access to shops or
Iranswrt. and many parts can be described as food deserts. Our area is not covered by otheT food
banks and charities as it is too Temote and thinly populated, 8nd we aim to meet the needs of those
excluded from other schemes by geo9raphy, and by lack of Iransport.
ObJe¢tlves and Activities
We began work in 2019 in St Davlds and Solva. and in 2020 in Fishguard and Goodwick to help with
food povety and attessibility al the Start of the pandemic. Our objectives 8re to help :_
prevent long term malnutrition in the elderly and their ¢arers,
those with health problems. including mental health.
the vulnerable, frail, and those with children and lack food accessibilty
Ih05e is short tsmi crisis leg Domestic violence, bereavement, illness, family incom8 crisis.)

Oblactlves and Actlvltles (continuod)
We cover a mainly rural and remte area of ¢oastal Pembrokeshire. We take referrals from health
workers, doctors, police, health visitors. other charities, and self referrals. We also provide emeryency
food and household g￿￿9 when needed, as well as signposting to other services that arè needed,
such as CAB. PAVS, and our weèkly deliveries provde 8 regular Gontact and well being check on the
most vulnerable household5.
We alm to be able to provKJe emergency support when requested on the same day. We provide
longer term Support through the Week￿ or fortnightty delNerio$ to homes.
We aim to help people by delivering a wee￿Y box of fresh fiuit, vegetsbles, eggs, cheese, bread,
cere81s and tinned food to their home, until they no longer need Support.
As during covid. during any fvbjre emergency we would aim to help those without intemet aece8s or
carers. people who had no ￿￿Urse to benefits for a minimum of six weeks, shielding, and in
quarantine. We also aim to support retired pecple on fixed and low incomes, people with disabilities
and people with children who are on UC. inGluding homeless households, and carers.
We aim lo provide a basic 'baskef of goods that should boost the nutrrf£ional value of meals across
the week, but is not inlended to be a full weeks worth of food, other than for Children. AduKs aré
encouraged to chose and purchase some of their own food, knowing they have the basic box every
week as long as needed. We also provide personal care and other household products on request.
We also refer people to a charity that provides sTnall animal. cal and dog food and also delivers it
A5 part of our commitment to dignty and caring, we provide an additional Christmas hamper to
enable every household to have food associal8d with the holiday, including a full Christmas dinner
8nd pudding, treats, and a Boxing Day tea which we aim to have local groups and businesses provtde
support and Sp￿SarShip.
Achlevements and Perforniance
We know trom letters and messages receNed that the benefits are profound. People in receipt of the
food par￿1 no longer fear malnutrition, are able to eat healthily, are able to pay other bills such as
heating and electricity. their quality of life has improved. They are no longer ternfied and are so
pleased that somebody cares about their welfare. The regular deliveries a￿ a much appreciated
contact for many of our isolated households, and we have been able to build trust. This can help us
understand their wider need5 and help sign pos1 them lo addtlional services and on occasion initiate
wellbeing proceilures and checks through family GPS and local care services. We also send out
voluntary surveys on food preferences, to reduce food waste.
In 2022 -23 we m¢)ved to an average 40 households a week, with one day a week packing and
distribution. This 40 average represents 300 weekly meals for adults and children. or 14,000 meals
per year_ We are planning detailed reviews of our whole operation and the basic operating model to
ensure we Gan meet our objectives with our currentfinances. Theweeklyoost in 2021-2022
was £254, or £241, per year, including the Christmas special parcels, and direGUy donated food worth
£3160.
We will continue to work wlth other community projects and with Ioc81 groups and djarities and
businesses who collect food and money donations on our behalf.

administered through grants from a country centralised organisation PAVS, All grants are fully audited
by the PAVS organisation by submission of receipts and a full report for each granl including financial
arsatysis.
In the past year our money has been spent on purchaslng foc¥J for distributvjn to those in need, wth
small amount from specific grants for essential IT, printing materials and small payments for petrol lo
volunteer drivers, who cover an average 15Q miles weekly and who mainly do so at their own
expense. The majority of food purch8$ed has been from a thal produce wholesaler and local
supermarkets. We have $81 aside a sum of £1200 for future rental of premises, although we hopé lo
