About the Trust

The Children's Feeding Trust (CFT) came into being in 1995 and operates under a registered deed of trust managed by a volunteer board of trustees and a paid staff of two. The Trust has a capital base inherited from the P.E School Feeding Fund on its closure after 38 years in 1995 and subsequently built up by the Trust from bequests and fundraising over the past 26 years. Dedicated volunteers also run a bookshop where donated books are on sale to the public. Other fundraising activities include book sales, sale of jumble, donated household items, marmalade, waste paper etc. – in order to cover the administrative costs of the Trust so that donations go directly to the feeding of children. Various schools participate in our collection tins initiative.

We are grateful for any donation you may choose to make – funding, books, food, clothes, jumble and of course your time!

Trustees: Erica Blackburn, Lynne Howse, Maureen Krige, Tony Lloyd, Trish Lones, Michael Warren, Robert Zahn
