This year we have been fortunate to receive financial assistance from a number of Trusts and Foundations. The grant awarded from The Garfield Weston Foundation has been invaluable in funding our day-to-day operating costs. We shared with the Foundation the various critical needs of our guests and the fact that between 75 and 100 people a day rely on us for their main meal, as well as the importance of the caring community we have nurtured at our guest centre in Cheltenham.

When others realise and actively support the work that we do, it means the world to us because we are only able to continue our critical work on account of the financial donations and grants that we receive.

We are enormously grateful to the Trustees of the Garfield Weston Foundation for their incredible support.
