Food Provision and Access

The Together Network runs, equips, supplies and supports food banks, food pantries, and holiday club to run across the country, ensuring more families have access to affordable food and essential household items.

We work in communities to tackle food insecurity in a host of ways. From organising Holiday Clubs in the school holidays to help families whose children receive free school meals, to lunch clubs for the elderly. Many of our Members around England deliver Feast of Fun, a school holiday programme that not only provides families with nutritious meals, but also fun activities to do in communities and at home. And we offer practical solutions like programmes to teach people to cook healthily on a budget.

Many of our Members support the work of local food pantries, which unlike a traditional food bank, allows families to shop in a supermarket-like environment, but at a very low cost. We're helping to not just meet immediate need but, also restore their dignity and freedom of choice.
