Volunteers at the foodbank in Arnold say demand for help has never been higher
The charity, based on Mansfield Road in Daybrook revealed only two weeks ago on social media that it had handed out a record number of emergency food parcels over the previous 10 months.
6,200 were given to those in need – and the charity said that this broke the record previously smashed during the pandemic.
A spokesman for the charity said at the time: “A sad record was broken this week: Arnold Foodbank has supported more local people with emergency food parcels this financial year than at any time in our ten-year history, which includes beating the year of the pandemic. That’s over 6,200 people and still counting as there are another six weeks until our year end on March 31.
