At Cheshire West Voluntary Action (CWVA), we host the West Cheshire Food Partnership, which helps deliver the Food for All Plan and puts a clear plan in place so everyone in our communities can access the food support they need.
The Food for All Plan, which has been produced with a range of different partners and people with lived experience, highlights that the following is needed for all in west Cheshire to eat decent meals.
Money – incomes, jobs and financial support that make a wide choice of food affordable.
Food – a nourishing and wide choice of food from a reliable and sustainable source.
Facilities, knowledge and equipment – spaces, education and tools for growing, cooking and eating food.
Support with mental health and wellbeing – feeling mentally and emotionally able to access the practical support of food, money, facilities, knowledge and equipment.
Local support – all of the above necessities must be available to people in their local area.
Food for All supports the fantastic work already taking place across west Cheshire.
