The demand has shoot through the roof this winter with not just those on benefits but those in employment really suffering also with little support out there through the government anymore. We have been running a postcode statistic of where needs seem to be greater in Thanet from our clientele list over the past year with results clearly showing most of our cases being referred from Cliftonville and Margate areas. We also run a fortnightly soup kitchen at The eclectic Palace with transportation to and from pick up points in each corner of Thanet. We have been featured on tv reports on BBC and ITV over the last 2 years and many a radio interview with local radio and BBC Radio Kent covering various topics.
