Let’s Feed Brum is a registered charity and operates with a Board of Trustees, some of which are the charity’s original founders.
As a volunteer-led charity, our Trustees do a lot more than strategic planning and decision-making. Alongside fellow Co-Founder, Ben Rafiqi, they’re also the volunteers who help run the charity day-to-day; from finance and fundraising to corporate engagement, connecting with the commissioned services and Local Authority, and supporting our volunteers.
