In the past year we have distributed 1169 parcels, which have helped 174 households, feeding 1674 adults and 1364 children.

## **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves**
Reserves have been held to cover running costs, which include buying fresh food weekly as well as two-years rent and staff costs.
Reserves are higher than some might expect because we are aiming to fund the Springboard Initiative (a support service) in the coming year and employ a Community Support Advisor.
## **Details of any funds materially in deficit**
## **Further financial review details (Optional information)**
You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about:
- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising);
- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity;
The foodbank has a positive balance at the end of the year, and this is due to the amazing generosity of individuals in the community, including some local organisations and occasionally local businesses. These are both food donations and donations of money and this year we have also benefitted from a couple of fund-raising events.
Most expenditure is on fresh food for service users which includes fresh fruit and veg, meat, cheese and eggs, to support a healthy diet. We occasionally help people with payment for energy bills.
- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.
