Foyle Network Foundation’s Strategic Development Manager Karen Mullan reflects that “2023 was a year of many changes.”
“We increased our staff team which enabled us to provide more support services. Trussell Trust provided us with funding for a Financial Inclusion Project to help maximise people’s income, deal with debt and include money management advice and guidance.
We continued to listen to those using and referring to our service and a continuous thread, was that our name Foyle Foodbank was seen as a barrier for some people reaching out or accepting help. We also heard that we are more than a Foodbank and our name should reflect that.
So, with the support of Trussell Trust we engaged Gray’s Communications to explore if this was so and to work with our stakeholders and partners. We are delighted with our new branding and name, Foyle Network Foundation.”
