COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

FOOD TROOPS C.I.C.

Company Number: 12215763 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 30 September 2024

Company activities and impact

We have been continuing to provide free food parcels to those in need as well as weekly hot healthy meals to our community kitchen and garden users. We have produced a wide range of vegetables in our garden and handed out for free to the community. We run children’s holiday provisions for those in receipt of free school meals in the summer which offer educational workshops in the areas of cookery, gardening, sports and wellness through nature connection. Many of our users are the elderly generation who have noted an improvement in their wellbeing and sense of community since attending our site and families which have massively benefitted from the free food parcels to keep them from facing the repercussions of living in food poverty.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our stakeholders include the directors of the company and the users of our services. We hold regular directors' meetings to assess the needs of the business, review progress, and identify areas for development. To date, we have created an action plan based on these internal discussions, and we are now in the process of expanding our consultation to include service users more directly. We intend to send out regular surveys to gather feedback from the wider community, helping us better understand local needs and shape our services accordingly. Moving forward, we are committed to engaging more deeply with all stakeholders to ensure our activities remain relevant, responsive, and impactful.

Directors' remuneration

Director's remuneration totalled £10,237.
