**benefit)**|The prevention or relief from poverty and hardship among people living in
Cleckheaton and surrounding area, particularly but not exclusively by the
provision of emergency parcels of food and other necessary consumer
goods required by individuals and families in need.| |---|---| ||The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity
Commission on public benefit when planning activities.
The charity’s main activity is running an emergency foodbank.
Anyone in need can refer themselves and we also receive referrals from
local agencies. A referral form is completed by the client liaison volunteer
on duty that day or by the referrer from an agency and beneficiary details
are stored on a secure spreadsheet.
The foodbank operates on 3 days per week when teams of volunteers
pack and deliver parcels to beneficiaries at their homes.
Information packs on where beneficiaries can find further help on such
matters as debt, longer term food support, benefits and job seeking are
included with the first parcel that a beneficiary receives and on occasions
a client liaison volunteer refers a beneficiary directly to another agency.
These activities help relieve poverty and hardship by enabling
beneficiaries to feed themselves and their families. They also help people
move on to longer term solutions once the immediate crisis is resolved.| ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** March **2012** **TAR** 3 We have a fantastic team of about 50 volunteers who fulfil varying roles and Trustees are very grateful to all of them.
