Last summer, when Marcus Rashford started his free school meals campaign, we set up our delivery service to families referred by their schools. We hate to think of children going hungry and families struggling to put food on the table. So our volunteers contacted schools who then contacted the families they knew would benefit most from this service. We delivered food parcels to local schools over the summer, issued vouchers for families to pick up food parcels and went on to deliver food to more than 200 families in Haringey and Barnet over Christmas and again during this last lockdown. In the year up to the end of February 2020, we had distributed just over 34,000kg of food to 1,690 families, including 2,285 adults and 1,114 children. At the end of February 2021, that’s increased to 44,650kg of food to 1,973 families, including 2,748 adults and 1,877 children.

Centres have witnessed a growing number of users during the pandemic as some residents’ social and economic circumstances have reached breaking point. The Trussell Trust foodbank network distributed more than 1.2 million emergency food parcels between April to September last year – a 47% increase that represented its busiest ever six-month period. The charity warned the figures were “just the tip of the iceberg”. Dorothea Hackman, chair of Euston Foodbank, told the Ham&High its branch has seen a trebling of users during the pandemic, including the homeless and large families from the Regent’s Park and Somers Town estates.
