Most foodbanks don’t think they need software - until the admin starts piling up.
Paper records, spreadsheets, and disconnected systems quickly become hard to manage.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll show how foodbanks can simplify everything with MyFoodbank.Online.

Looking after a charity or church’s finances is an important responsibility, and having the right guidance can make it much easier.

The Charity Commission for England and Wales has created a Trustee Finance Toolkit to support trustees with practical advice on financial oversight, controls, and reserves.

It’s a helpful resource whether you’re new to the trustee role or simply want to review your current processes.
