London Borough of Southwark awarded a contract to the Centre for Responsible Credit to deliver and evaluate the impact of the Breakthrough project, an experimental action research initiative providing additional monthly income boosts from the Household Support Fund to foodbank users over a twenty-seven month period.

The project evaluated how these income boosts, alongside possible Council debt write-downs and benefits and debt advice from Citizens Advice Southwark, affected foodbank use, payment behaviours, and resident wellbeing.

The contract was procured under the PCR 2015 regime and was variated by gateway 3, with a value of £313,650.
