Affordable Food Clubs range from social supermarkets and pantries, to food buses and larders, at the heart of communities where people live and work. Each setting offers nutritious food and other essentials for a fraction of their retail value. In doing so, they enable people on low incomes to stretch their budgets further each week – helping to prevent financial crises which bring the need for food banks into play, and to provide stepping stones away from such crises.
Feeding Britain supports a growing national network of Affordable Food Clubs, and may have funding and resources to support your project. Contact info@feedingbritain.org to find out more
