00:00Every week we help between 200 and 300 people depending on the week. It's always busiest at November. November to February is our busiest time when it's colder and people are having to choose between putting the heating on or eating.
00:12Yeah and have you got any feedback from people that use the food bank and said what a difference this has made for them?
00:17Oh yeah we had one referrer told us last year that we'd been a life save in a very literal sense. You've literally kept this person alive while their problems which were really complex were being sorted out. So yeah people who use the food bank are really upset when they might be closing.
00:39Yeah I bet and so you said you were kind of looking at provisions to move elsewhere. Has anything...
00:43I'm going to look at somewhere tomorrow with the council and there's a couple of other possibilities. But we use quite a lot of space here. I think I added it up. It's about 190 square metres of space that we use.
00:57So it's not just a room in someone's building. We need a lot of space. We need exclusive usage. We're storing food and we're storing cleaning products.
01:05So we need those to be secure and safe so that people don't climb on shelves and topple them over. So yeah it's quite a big ask and we're aware of that.
