SWINDON'S FOOD COLLECTIVE LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 11503403)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024



The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Charity Mission
The charity's objects ('Objects') as set out company's memorandum and articles of association are:

The prevention or relief of poverty and to preserve and protect good health by providing food, non-food and non-alcoholic beverages to those in financial need or poor health in the Swindon and District area of Wiltshire.

The charity also has a mission:

To reduce the impact of food poverty on people in crisis in the Swindon and district area.

The Charity provides short term assistance in the form of emergency food parcels to anyone who faces short term difficulties through unemployment, benefit delays, low income or other financial difficulties. Clients are provided with a nutritionally balanced supply of food, sufficient for 3-5 days and should their needs persist then further assistance through the Food Collective will be available. The Charity's volunteers seek to refer clients to other support agencies through whom they can obtain longer term help.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024


ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The charity currently comprises of a board of 6 trustees, a company secretary, 5 part-time employed staff and is supported by over 100 volunteers. We lease a warehouse where food is delivered, sorted, stored, picked and packed into emergency food parcels. We distribute from 11 centres located in various church halls in and around Swindon, we have 3 vans which are used to collect donations from various locations and deliver food to our distribution centres. Each van is sponsored by a corporate supporter whose logo is displayed in exchange for a financial donation.

Our service relies on the goodwill of our volunteers who donate their time regularly to support the warehouse operations, assist our service users at the distribution centres and manage the delivery and collection of goods. Each volunteer donates at least 3 hours a week and this gives the charity in excess of 15,000 hours per year as a minimum, many volunteers do two or more sessions a week.
Last year we were privileged to have 19 employee teams from various businesses in and around Swindon to come in to help us in the warehouse. This is an enormous help and we will continue with this level of support again this year, the Trustees appreciate the support of all volunteers and send our heartfelt thanks to them all.

Last year we purchased our first Electric vehicle, this has been very successful and in line with our 3-year plan we will swap all vehicles to Electric over the coming years.

The charity will continue to use The Bible Society Warehouse, including additional warehouse and office space for which we are extremely grateful. We have concluded the lease negotiations and this will run until March 2026

Food Collective works in partnership with many supermarkets and businesses across the town who host collection bins for shoppers to deposit food. We also receive donations from Churches, local businesses and schools. The total volumes of donations have declined again this year as we continuously purchase food to ensure we have enough to supply our clients. These items are paid for through the financial generosity of our regular donors, large local companies and supporters as well as two significant grants from Swindon Borough and Wiltshire Council.

Each individual or family referred to the food bank will collect a nutritionally balanced food box, personal toiletries and household cleaning products from their chosen distribution centre. We have also continued to offer top-up-bags (TUB) for each new referral (at centres which have sufficient storage space) and extra product that has been donated but not within our staple boxes, ie gravy granules Jams, ketchups, mayonnaise, treats etc. In addition, we continue to offer Easter, Summer and Christmas bags which increases our support at difficult times, this is over and above the normal food box on offer.

Over the last 3 years we have offered hot water bottles and blankets along with other essential provisions, to help keep our clients warm, this is paid for through the generosity of our regular donors and supporters. These were much appreciated and will be repeated this winter. We also continue to signpost clients to other local support agencies for appropriate assistance with benefits, debt, help with household bills etc.

We continue to work with other organisations in the area who provide food to vulnerable people, all baby products are delivered direct to Grow Baby on a monthly basis. We also continue to support Gorse Hill Community Fridge, with any surplus stock and any out of date product. In addition, we help Swindon Caring Hearts, The Foyer, GWH, The Harbour Project & Great Western Hotel (supported accommodation for the homeless).

We have also specifically created an offer of "kettle foods" for anyone without cooking facilities, creating separate boxes including pot noddle's, dried foods, crackers and paste, soups etc

During the year, we received 85.09 tonnes of donated stock and distributed 115.7 tonnes, we purchased 17.5 tonnes to enable us to continue our credible service.

During the financial year of April 2023 to March 2024 SFC assisted over 10,350 people of which roughly 25% were children.

It is the policy of Swindon's Food Collective to hold in reserve the equivalent of 24 months' general running costs and hold these as designated future expenses.

Free Reserves are those monies held by the charity that are not designated.

FUTURE PLANS
We will continue to review and update the 3-year business plan to ensure Swindon Food Collective remains sustainable and capable of meeting the ever-changing and continuing increasing demand. We will work closely with the Swindon Borough Council to support other local food agencies

Key planned activities for 2024/2025 include:
