As well as struggling to afford food and other essentials, many of our clients face other complex issues, such as domestic violence, problem debt, homelessness and poor mental health. Since employing our first support worker in 2018, this work has grown substantially, working with people to address these underlying issues and supporting them to not need the Foodbank. This report assesses the nature and impact of the support work from the clients’ perspective, based on in-depth interviews we carried out in late 2022 with ten supported clients.
