Wider Impact is delighted to be commissioned to independently evaluate the Big Lottery funded Stoke on Trent Foodbank Project (https://stokeontrent.foodbank.org.uk/).
Project Manager Anna Wilcox (pictured centre) says, ‘The Stoke on Trent Foodbank is part of The Trussell Trust’s UK-wide foodbank network. This helps local churches and communities to open foodbanks, providing emergency food to thousands of people nationwide every year‘.
Wider Impact Director Edwin Lewis (pictured) says, ‘Whilst it is still early days, it is already clear that the Project is supporting by some amazing people and is certainly supporting people in crisis in Stoke on Trent.
We are looking forward to understanding ‘what is working’ and delivering our final report, which will be presented to the Big Lottery next year.
I ask anyone who feels they can contribute to our research to contact me and share their views and information‘.
