Monmouth and District Foodbank

The foodbank seeks to offset poverty in Monmouth & District by providing food to individuals and families in food crisis. The foodbank also seeks to support other organisations working with the disadvantaged. The work is based on the Christian values of compassion, integrity and commitment. In our Financial Year 1st April 18 to 31st March 19 a total of 564 (362 adults and 202 children) were fed.

The places the charity told the Commission it works in.

In the year ending 31 July 2026, it had income of £18,779 and spent £9,812.

Figures as the charity reported them to the Charity Commission. Staff and volunteer numbers are only asked of charities with income over £10,000. A year with no row was not reported.

Separate measures from the charity's own returns and accounts, each with its year. Read them together: no single measure says how well a charity is run.

Income over time

About the same: £18,779 in the year to 31 July 2026, against £18,648 in the year to 31 July 2022.

Spending against income

It spent 52% of its income in the year to 31 July 2026. It spent more than its income in 1 of the 5 years shown.

From the annual returns the charity filed with the Charity Commission. The largest funder comes from its accounts, read by AI.

Government grants in the year ending 31 July 2026: £3,500 from 2 grants. Government contracts: Not reported.

From the charity's annual return to the Charity Commission, which asks every charity with income over £10,000 how much came from government grants and contracts. It does not say which part of government. These totals are separate from the named funders read from its accounts and the grants published on 360Giving, and are not added to them.

No grants to this charity appear in 360Giving data.

Only funders that publish their grants to 360Giving are included, and many do not. These are amounts funders awarded, which can differ from what the charity received in a given year, so they are shown apart from the accounts figures above.

Public bodies' published spending shows 3 payments to this charity worth £11,217 between 29 March 2022 and 17 February 2026.

Councils and Welsh Government publish what they pay suppliers and grant holders above a threshold, usually £500 for councils and £25,000 for Welsh Government, so smaller payments are missing. A payment is shown only when OpenEconomy matched it to this charity with certainty. These figures come from the payer's records. They are a separate measure from the charity's own accounts, 360Giving grants and its annual return, and are never added to them.

6 trustees run the charity.
