20 Annual Review 2021/22 Launching our new strategy: Thriving Somerset Communities Hidden Somerset: Raising awareness of Food Poverty In spring 2021, we launched our new strategy, Thriving Somerset Communities, in which we set out four key strategic priorities for the next four years that will help us better respond to the needs of our charities, donors and communities now and in the future. More targeted and effective funding including more core, flexible and multi-year funding Use our knowledge and insight to influence social change Significantly grow funding for our communities by raising more funds Build an organisation that reflects the communities we serve, including improving diversity, equity and inclusion In November 2021, we published Hidden Somerset: Food Poverty, the fourth of our Hidden Somerset reports which shine a spotlight on issues that are often hidden from view or not widely understood. The report took an in depth look at the growing issue of food poverty in Somerset and highlighted that over 70,000 people in Somerset are worried about providing enough food for their household. Our survey of the local voluntary and community sector found that there was a 63% increase in demand faced by community food projects between 2019– 2021, and 60% of community food projects reported working with clients who needed their support on a regular basis. Food poverty is a complex and multi-faceted social issue; whilst local charities and community groups play a vital role in tackling the issue, we can’t ignore the need for national governmental support, such as increased welfare benefits to lift people out of poverty and investment in local infrastructure, transport and enterprise to increase opportunity in rural communities.
