Sabine Goodwin

Coordinator of the Independent Food Aid Network

As a food bank volunteer in 2016, Sabine Goodwin became aware of the scarcity of information available on independent food banks working outside of the Trussell Trust network. She compiled a list of UK independent food banks that was first published in The Guardian in May 2017. Sabine has been running the Independent Food Aid Network (IFAN) since 2018 and leads the organization’s research and advocacy work. In November 2019 she won the Caroline Walker Trust 30th Anniversary Media Campaigner of the Year Award and in January 2020 was listed as a Top 100 Changemaker for 2020 by The Big Issue.
