Their passion remained undiminished, and after years of hard graft Humdum has become a model community outreach programme. It is now the first digital foodbank in Barking &amp; Dagenham, which will enable users to engage and order their necessities online.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Barking resident Emdad Rahman, a volunteer for Humdum and a Running Ambassador, spent an afternoon with the core team so that he could present the team of women with limited edition medals to celebrate their amazing achievements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Emdad commented, \u201cThese are women from the community who have been empowered by Humdum to serve others selflessly. The improvement in their confidence and engagement has been nothing short of phenomenal. Well done ladies \u2013 you are all sensational.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Humdum Chair Kishwar Bhola added, \u201cWe serve ready meals and hand out fresh food parcels to the homeless and to those who are less fortunate or are struggling to make ends meet. It really is a privilege for us to be able to serve our neighbours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Vice Chair Nighat Bhola concluded, \u201cMy mum is the most inspirational person in my life. Her energy is electric, and she has pushed me and the team to greater things each day. We live to serve the people and we are fortunate to have such a great team and such wonderful support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u25cf<\/span>At Humdum Foodbank people are invited to eat a homemade hot meal at the centre and take a fresh food parcel home with them. Volunteers are on hand to serve the community every Saturday at 1 pm in the Ripple centre, 121 Ripple Road, Barking.
