Ensuring That Everyone Has Access To Good Food
Accessible Meals for Everyone
Our social programmes provide nutritious, affordable meals to communities. By working closely with housing associations and community organisations, we ensure that all individuals and their families have access to the food they need.
Our Well-Fed Meal box Programme has been designed to help everyone cook fresh meals easily and runs for 12 weeks for each participant. Each week we deliver every household a meal box, comprised of 5 fresh recipe packs as well as everyday essential items such as bread, milk, eggs butter and cheese. Each recipe pack contains all of the fresh ingredients and well as easy to follow recipe cards, needed to create a freshly prepared, delicious meal.

Meal Subsidy
Our focus on meal subsidy ensures no one is left behind. By offering meals at little or no cost, we help alleviate the impact of financial hardship on families and individuals across the communities we work with. By offering subsidised or free meals, we remove barriers to accessing good, wholesome food for all households in need.
The first 4 weeks of meals are free and the following 8 weeks are charged at a discounted rate. For the 12-week period, each household will receive a total of £540 worth of food, at a cost of £100 all together.

Community Collaboration
We work with local authorities, schools, and housing providers to maximise our social impact. These partnerships allow us to reach those who need our support, with effective, sustainable solutions. We are currently operating social programmes in North Wales, Wirral & Manchester. Looking ahead, we are committed to deepening our community engagement and expanding our reach into new regions. By building on the success of our current initiatives, we aim to co-create innovative programmes that address emerging social challenges and empower individuals to thrive.

Healthier Communities
Good food can change lives. Our programmes are designed to improve diets and promote well-being, giving individuals the strength and confidence to thrive, no matter their circumstances. Through our social programmes, we’re not just providing good food, we’re creating more resilient & healthier communities. Our cookery programme provides communities with the skills to get back into household kitchen and start cooking from scratch. To date we have trained 18,000 people to cook and if you would like to find out how to take part visit our Cookery Programme page here

Neo Community Centre
Over a 12 month period we provided families across Wirral Borough with fresh food meal boxes. Each family received food boxes containing the ingredients and step-by-step recipe cards to create three family-friendly, healthier family meals together.
By working with Neo Community and their partner networks within 57 local schools & nurseries, we were able to deliver 15,951 Meal Boxes, which is the equivalent to 47,853 family meals, or 191,412 individual meals.This initiative not only helped ease food insecurity but also empowered families to cook and eat together. We are incredibly proud of the collective effort that made this possible and grateful to Neo Community, their partner networks, and the staff of schools and nurseries.
