Mobile Foodbank Supports 40 Battersea Families in Community Partnership

Tarem Services expands food security initiative with Mayor’s support at STORM Family Centre

Tarem Services distributed food essentials bags to 40 families, supporting around 80 individuals, at STORM Family Centre in Battersea. This marked the eighth Mobile Foodbank event since the initiative launched in October 2024.

The Worshipful the Mayor of Wandsworth, Councillor Jeremy Ambache, joined the distribution alongside volunteers from Tarem Services and its Fulham-based client, construction company Balfour Beatty.

“This is what local partnership looks like. Community, enterprise and industry working together to meet real needs,” said Mayor Ambache. “It shows what’s possible when social purpose is placed at the centre of business.”

Thank You to Our Volunteers and Partners

We thank all the volunteers who helped make the event a success, including our client Balfour Beatty, whose support demonstrates the strength of socially responsible partnerships.

Community Impact

The Mobile Foodbank has now supported more than 1,380 individuals across areas where Tarem Services operates. Marie Hanson MBE, Director and Founder of STORM Family Centre, said:

“They didn’t just show up. They rolled up their sleeves, filled food bags with care and handed them out with heart.”

The event sparked connections, with hopes it will lead to future collaboration and projects.

STORM Family Centre supports families affected by domestic violence and hardship, providing mental health support, training, outreach and advocacy.
