achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|In an ideal world there would not be a need for
Foodbanks but there is and those who are in need are
dealt with discretion and respect. The provision of food
and cleaning parcels during the referral period
provides temporary respite and a chance for those in
receipt to have one less thing to be concerned about.
At Christmas we provided the ingredients to make a
Christmas Roast with some treats for 158 people. The
impact for those people was visible and humbling as
they did not know they were going to receive the
parcels. The good were in the main donated by local
businesses, groups, school and individuals, meaning
our spend in 2024 was lower than in the previous year.
Fundraising helps to bring our community together.
Local events such as Halloween displays, Christmas
lights, Brownie bake-sale, Village fetes, Agricultural
Show, School and Church Harvest Festivals, as well
as local businesses fundraising for advent calendars
have enable the Foodbank to help ensure that no-one
in our Community needs to be hungry in the 2020’s.| ## **Financial Review** |**Financial Review**||| |---|---|---| |Review of the charity’s

seeking grants in 2026, preferring these to go to other
organisations with greater need. With the increases in
the cost of living affecting more people than before,
the amount of food donated is dropping so the
financial resources allow us to top up stocks as and
when needed.| |Statement explaining the
