The Mike Howley Trust, a legacy of the late Mike Howley, partners with Platform One and Quay Arts to disperse bursaries of up to £1,500 to young Isle of Wight .
The Trussell Trust has today (Thursday) revealed that more than 5,000 emergency food parcels were handed out to Islanders in the first year of the Covid-19 pandemic - with more than 2,000 going to children. The overall handout was a decrease on 2019, but The Trussell Trust suggests that is likely to be because of the huge number of support groups that sprang up as a result of the pandemic. On the Isle of Wight, businesses, churches, charities, community groups and schools have all been working to keep Islanders in crisis on their feet.
How did the Island s political hopefuls response to The Trussell Trust s challenge?
