"It is difficult to know what the January figure could be," said Simon."We are in uncharted territory, we have never been in this position before." But overall he said that the charity has had to dip into its reserves as donations throughout the year were not enough to meet burgeoning demand."We are open throughout the year. The donations have been fantastic, we have had lots of donations but this is a plea for the support to continue."
Alongside its core foodbank service, TCS runs a baby and toddler bank and a school uniform pre-loved scheme, and through selective partnerships and collaborations, helps with home energy, re-homing, and support for bed poverty community projects, community events and more.
