Warwick foodbank receives free IT revamp to tackle strain on current system

In recent months, Warwick District Foodbank has been faced with an unprecedented level of reliance on their services. The lack of effective IT systems and equipment was making the work for their staff increasingly difficult to manage.

Telent’s Corporate Social Responsibility initiative put together a project to provide solutions for the foodbank to make the administrative duties easier to manage for the employees and volunteers, allowing them to better allocate resources.

Since the new system was provided, demand for the foodbank’s services has increased still further. Despite this, Warwick District Foodbank has reintroduced cafes at their distribution centres, giving their clients the opportunity for a brew and a chat with volunteers while they collect their support parcels.

Telent’s Corporate Social Responsibility Challenge allows graduates the opportunity to manage and implement a project that creates a positive impact in areas of the community. The initiative aims to provide valuable experience for graduates while supporting community organisations.
