Each District in Suffolk has a fund available to support community food projects. The CAS Community Food Team are working closely with the communities teams at District councils to support projects to apply for the funding.
Details of each fund can be found below. More information about each fund is available from the relevant Community Food Officer for each district.
East Suffolk: Food Project Resilience Grant Scheme
Grants of up to £10,000 are available to food projects to help them better address food insecurity by creating food independence for the long term rather than providing emergency assistance.
This might be by projects becoming more self-sufficient, sustainable and resilient for the future, by streamlining processes and using technology to become more efficient or by supporting clients out of hardship and into food independence in new ways.
For more information or support contact Community Food Officers Chris Roberts & Louise Biddiscombe
Babergh & Mid Suffolk: Sustainable Food Fund
The fund intends to support sustainable, community-led initiatives focusing on food insecurity, education, improving
access to nutritious affordable food, reducing food waste, and more!
Grants of £250-£5,000 are available for capital costs, and some revenue costs (see Guidance Notes for more
details).
