Building a Good Food Movement for Lewes District
We believe that food poverty needs to be addressed with a whole-systems, circular approach that looks at a number of issues related to food insecurity not just access to food but food equality, food education & well-being, and sustainability.
We have two tranches of funding available to support residents experiencing food insecurity across the winter.
Deadline
There will be two tranches of this grant process, one which finishes at the end of September 2023 and one which finishes in February 2024, in order to support projects throughout winter.
Have questions? Join us for an online information session on the 13th of September from 2-3pm. email info@lewesdistrictfoodpartnership.org for more info.
