Looprun is a response division and part of an independent social enterprise. This is more than food and is part of a supportive services platform to help people get sustained in their own individual way. With up to 94% success rate and seeing once those receiving free Looprun response bags to returning to stores as shoppers with baskets full. These are the impact stories created when all come together to do good for good. Service users are signposted to Looprun mostly from referrals including professionals in social and healthcare. Looprun provides free non perishables, perishable food, toiletries, and brand new clothing to people facing a temporary challenge. Whatever supermarkets, stores, and retailers can do is turned into a grateful donation to a neighbour in need. This is a response to real people in real-time. No food is banked providing a direct in and out service. We believe if the food is stored then a person in need is not getting any food, hence we provide an instant response and instant impact service. Looprun has access to professional volunteers who carry out a confidential support service to people in need. From homeless shelters, hostels, sheltered housing, care homes, soup kitchens and schools. This is a non voucher, free and confidential service. This means Looprun can reach more people in need with food donations. Anyone that receives a Looprun bag of essential food items is sustained thus creating a loop cycle. All are invited to become part of these sustainable stories in your local community.

being that extends beyond short-term aid. Over the past year, FFH has delivered more than 7,000 meals and provided direct support to homeless individuals in Camden. By tackling food insecurity, poor health, and the lack of nutrition resources, FFH has established itself as a leader in providing comprehensive, impactful solutions for homelessness. Our food services include outreach (giving food donations and meals directly to homeless people and rough sleepers), and redistributing food/meals to the other local organisations to help with their food services. Food for Homeless is deeply embedded in the Camden community, with strong ties to local networks. The organisation plays a vital role in supporting homeless individuals across the borough, focusing on areas with high concentrations of rough sleepers and those in temporary housing or at risk of being made homeless. The project is particularly aimed at Camden’s homeless population. Currently there are approximately 903 people reported sleeping rough in Camden (www.statista.com). Many young people in Camden experience homelessness. Our project ensures they have access to nutritious food, improving their health and ability to focus on rebuilding their lives. • By offering volunteer opportunities, we engage Camden’s youth in community service, fostering empathy and leadership skills. • We actively engage volunteers from diverse backgrounds, creating a community-driven support network for those in need. • By respecting cultural dietary preferences, we ensure that everyone feels included and supported. This project will empower Camden residents to actively engage with their community, fostering a sense of collective responsibility. Volunteers will play a key role in supporting the initiative, from assisting with meal preparation and distribution to harvesting produce from the community garden. The project will also provide opportunities for community members to contribute to the design and delivery of activities. Volunteers and participants will be encouraged to share ideas for improving the service and enhancing the programme. This will help shape a more inclusive and responsive initiative, tailored to the community's needs. The Food for Homeless project is committed to continuous learning and improvement to ensure itssuccess and impact. We will track the difference our project makes by implementing a robust monitoring and evaluation framework.

In 2022 we have now rebranded to The Sapphire Employability and Wellbeing Academy (TSEAWA) as we have moved on solely to supporting BAME young people aged 5- 35 with employability, housing, wellbeing and food support. TSEAWA was established to help young people access work and accredited training. Aiming to increase young people's independence, abilities and freedom to thrive, all while reducing unemployment, mental health issues, crime rates and homelessness.

Increasing skills development We are an organisation that aims to restore, revive and rebuild a divided generation. We are an organisation that accepts everyone and encourages individuals to be their truest self. We work with the 5-35 year olds around the world and we instil the message of love but most of all worth. We have over 4 years of experience and till date we have worked with over 8000 young people and single parents till date, especially those from minority and disadvantaged backgrounds. Sapphire aims to equip young people to not only be the their best version of themselves but to also inspire them to have a genuine insight of what they will like to pursue in the near future. More importantly, the community group is put in place to make a major contribution to those whose voice has been silenced and ensuring that they understand and fulfil their purpose. We are an organisation that seeks to empower and stabilise a segregated community. The sole purpose of Sapphire is to build people up. Moreover, to ensure that each individual finds what they are meant to do in life. Through mentoring, coaching, literature, entertainment, events and workshops; we aim to provide a platform and pathway for young people all over the world find their callings. Additionally, we will attempt to help each individual believe that they can create a change for the extraordinary. We aim to teach and inspire individuals to believe in themselves and see their full potential. We have multiple young people roaming the streets, because they believe that the world has given up on them or they believe that they do not have what it takes to create the impossible. So Sapphire is stepping in to give a voice to the voiceless. The Sapphire Employability and Wellbeing Academy (TSEAWA) is here to tell our young, that they are good enough! And that there is nothing they cannot achieve if they are willing to go the extra mile to achieve the unattainable today.
