14. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Allotment Projects We have now got two active allotment projects in Ebley and Bisley. These projects allow us to get fresh, locally produced vegetables delivered to our Foodbank centres for customers to take home. This has allowed us to give a more exciting range of fruit and vegetables with things like raspberries, lettuce, tomatoes and potatoes being introduced. This has been a success with Foodbank customers having increased self esteem and dignity in receiving extra goods and has allowed us to talk about cooking skills and deliver advice to families.

15. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Mobile Foodbank We launched our 5th Foodbank centre this year in Nailsworth. It is a mobile centre that delivers food direct to homes as and when it is required. This, combined with our Wotton mobile unit, means we can now deliver to any home in the Nailsworth, Minchinhampton, Uley, Dursley, Wotton, Berkeley and Sharpness areas.

16. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Food partnerships Joining with APT and Stonehouse Children’s Centre we were invited to work with Wiggly Worm Charity to pilot a meals project in Stonehouse. It allowed free meals to be served and people to be inspired to cook by Rob Rees. We have also provided bulk donations to Marah Trust, Openhouse, Season House, Ark House and Salvation Army- 8608kg in total.

17. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Goldfish Joining with Churches Together in Stonehouse and the Children’s Centre we were able to catalyse the creation of a new toddler group. We don’t run it or have any formal role in it but were able to use our resources and skills to help form the group as it started.

18. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Advocacy We piloted and developed a advocacy service in our Stroud Centre using local advocates to help provide deeper support for our customers. This has provided a great emotional and physical support for our customers. We are now in the process of expanding this service as part of a national pilot.

19. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Kids’ Stuff Database We built and launched a new database to manage and record Kids’ Stuff referrals. This is helping us to track the work we do and to build up a more robust picture of how the service is used locally.

20. Stroud District Basics Bank Vision and Feedback Evening Social Enterprise We have been exploring social enterprise solutions to help create sustainable employment and long term financial security for the project. So far we have used various channels to sell second hand goods to people and have been able to provide paid work for a mum that has generated funds for us and enabled her to earn money as well. We will be exploring this concept further this year.
