Our strategy
Our vision is for a UK without the need for food banks. Our strategy sets out how we’re going to get there.
We want to ensure everyone can afford the essentials in life. We’re working towards a compassionate, just society without the need for large-scale emergency food distribution.
In 2020 we launched our Together for Change strategy, setting out our priorities for the next five years. See the progress we’re making in our latest impact report.
Our strategic goals
To create change, we’re prioritising three areas of work: changing communities, changing policy, and changing minds.
Changing communities
We’re working with food banks to reduce the need for their services locally, helping people to access targeted support that makes it less likely they’ll need a food bank again.
Changing policy
We’re working alongside food banks and partners to provide stronger evidence of the drivers of food bank use, and pushing for positive solutions that will ensure people have enough money for the essentials.
Changing minds
We’re increasing levels of understanding and empathy amongst the general public, locally and UK-wide, to build a movement that is willing to take action to create a just and compassionate society without the need for food banks.
Our values
Our values underpin everything we do. It isn’t right that anyone should experience hunger or poverty, and we know we all have a responsibility to stand alongside people facing hardship.
