Our Mission
Commitment, transparency, innovation. These three values have stood at the center of the FTC mission since our founding in 2020. We are a foodbank charity in Grimsby. We wholeheartedly commit to the work we do with passion and dedication, transparently sharing it with the local community and inviting others to take part. On top of this, we challenge ourselves to think creatively, applying an innovative approach to all that we do. This mission drives the continued success of FTC.
About Us
Feed the Community was created on the 25th October 2020 by Lacey Langridge during the covid 19 outbreak. Initially the food bank was run from her home, where herself and volunteers delivered food packages to those in need.
In February 2021 FTC (as they are otherwise known) became an associate of 'WE ARE ONE' who helped with a shared data system and really supported FTC in the training of opening up a physical food bank.
On 16th April 2021 they set up a food bank at the Fusion Centre on Ladysmith Road. This was a big turning point for FTC as they were now able to reach more people who was in need.
Unfortunately, the premises was then outgrown as the need in the community became greater. FTC then moved into St Christopher's Methodist Church 25th May 2022 where they remain today.
FTC became a recognised charity on 14th April 2022.
