0-Love Southampton 2022-2023

I am delighted to report that Love Southampton has become a voice for the churches in the city and has developed strong and positive relations with Southampton City Council, the NHS and other significant local organisations. God has opened doors for us in remarkable ways and we have taken up opportunities to participate in exciting new projects and initiatives. The Faith New Deal grant has been a gamechanger and will be explained in this report.

We believe that this research is one of the big<br />

achievements that <strong>Love</strong> <strong>Southampton</strong> has made<br />

this year that will have tangible outcomes to<br />

enable us to better serve those going hungry in<br />

<strong>Southampton</strong> through a joined up and<br />

evidenced-based approach. It will help us to<br />

understand how much food these places are distributing,<br />

where the food is coming from, and whether these sources<br />

are sustainable, as well as how many people are being fed in<br />

<strong>Southampton</strong> on an average day. <strong>Love</strong> <strong>Southampton</strong> can then use<br />

this data as evidence to promote the work of the church networks<br />

within <strong>Southampton</strong> to the council, and the wider world, all in line<br />

with our mission statement.<br />

Figure 3: This illustration gives an overview of the various sources of food that are collected by partners from<br />

our food network.<br />
