We’re addressing critical shortages of vegetarian/vegan options for people facing food poverty. In 2024/2025, around 13% of households in the Northwest of England experienced food insecurity. This, coupled with rising food prices and food banks often lacking suitable choices, leaves people unable to meet their basic nutritional needs - especially during the festive season. This deepens health inequalities, exacerbates food poverty and reinforces the exclusion of those with dietary requirements.
We will partner with local community centres, utilising their kitchens to provide frontline food provision and community building activities for 500+ people experiencing food poverty across several dates in December. This aligns with our mission to create a kinder life for people, the planet and for animals, through tackling food poverty and providing ethical, sustainable and nutritious meals, while building community.
