About Us

March and District Community Action Team is a group of organisations who are committed to supporting members of the Fenland Community who need additional food and fuel.

2020 has seen a massive impact on the lives of many people in our community due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. Hundreds of job losses and people trying to manage on reduced pay. 100% increase of families whose children now need to access Free School Meals.

The MADCAT team are committed to working together and with other partners across Fenland to support anyone who needs additional access to food and fuel over the coming days, weeks and months.
