In October 2012 Angus foodbank was launched by Strathmore Christian Fellowship under the umbrella of The Trussell Trust. Every day people in Angus go hungry for reasons ranging from unemployment to redundancy to receiving an unexpected bill on a low income or even unexpected illness. We provide a minimum of three days emergency food and support to people experiencing crisis. Rising costs of food and fuel combined with static income, high unemployment and changes to benefits are causing more and more people to come to foodbanks for help. Angus foodbank partners with churches and communities throughout the whole of Angus to help and support people in need. Please donate to support our cause. All food given out, isdonated by schools, churches, businesses, individuals, or through supermarket collections. These collections engage the public at supermarkets where they are met by volunteers who offer shoppers a ‘foodbank shopping list’ and ask them to buy an extra item with their shop.At the warehouse, food is sorted by volunteers according to type and ‘best before date’, and then taken to foodbank centres, where it is made up into food parcels for clients.Care professionals such as social workers, Citizens Advice Bureau staff, welfare officers, health visitors, Job Centres amongst others, identify people in crisis and refer them to the foodbank.Clients attend a foodbank centre where they receive three days supply of emergency food. We also run a delivery service, which takes emergency food parcels to clients living in rural areas and those who cannot get to a foodbank.

The Lin Berwick Trust is a registered charity that builds self-catering holiday houses for the severely disabled, their families and carers. The Trust opened its first holiday house for the disabled, Berwick Cottage, in East Harling, Norfolk in 1997. It has been a resounding success, receiving the highest accolades for disabled holiday accommodation from Tourism for All (formerly Holiday Care) and VisitBritain, which has given it the award of Access Exceptional under the new National Accessible Standards Scheme and a 4-star rating under the National Quality Assessment Scheme. The Trust's second holiday house for the disabled, Denis Duncan House, in Dirleton, East Lothian, opened its doors to holidaymakers in 2006.
We are a small group of volunteers who work and live in the community, working alongside West Midlands Ambulance Service. We respond to 999 calls and bridge the gap between the call and the ambulance arriving. We carry life saving equipment and are trained to a high standard by West Midlands Ambulance Service. The group has no government funding and the volunteers raise all the funds needed for equipment and running of the group. There are no salaries paid so almost every penny goes towards equipment or the running of the scheme car, with a very minimal amount spent on stationary and fund raising.
