The Aid Redistribution Centre (ARC)
TPT oversaw the Aid Redistribution Centre in 2022 when the projects co-founder became the Strategic Lead Officer at TPT, and because the aims of the project aligned with charity's mission. Whilst the warehouse facility has now closed, this project had a tremendous impact on Plymouth during the Coronavirus Pandemic. The ARC Manager is now the Food Security Adviser at TPT and a valued and knowledgeable member of the staff team.
