IN November 2019, West Berks Foodbank was operating with a team of around 12 people and received 3.9 tonnes of food in donations.
Fast forward 12 months, more than 90 people have signed up to volunteer for the charity and last month it received more than 18 tonnes of food to be given to people in need.
It has been a challenging year for all, but at the same time the coronavirus pandemic has given communities the opportunity to really pull together and support everyone in their time of need.
