Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Phoenix House is a building that houses the charity that helps the homeless and the less fortunate. We have been running for seven and a half years but have been a registered charity since 4th January 2022.
The charity supplies hot food, food parcels and clothes to anyone in Swale including Faversham, Sheerness and Newington.
January 2022 saw another normal winter with many people being put up into temporary accommodation giving them somewhere to get warm and a bed to sleep in.
The kitchen in Phoenix House was as busy as ever; around 30 plus meals daily to those that need them. On an average month we cook a minimum of 578 meals and 30 food parcels given out.
In the winter we supplied approximately 8 temporary rooms; in the summer 4 rooms, although this can change and is getting busier as the year goes on.
Lots of support is given to people who come into Phoenix House for housing support, rent advice and for evictions etc with lots of additional support being given to many different types of situations.
There were lots of collections from Morrisons, Aldi, Lidl, Sainsburys and M&S.
There was a food bank each month of around 30 food parcels with a noticeable number of key workers who come to us for help.
Phoenix House supplies clothing to those that need it, with any clothing that is left each month going to Cash 4 Clothes or will be sold to be invested back into the charity.
