More about the projects, services or activity (optional)
 

Food insecurity remains a pressing issue in Hammersmith & Fulham, and community organisations are essential in helping residents access nutritious food and build long-term food security.
 
If your project provides any food support, please use the “food ladders” approach to help us understand the type of provision you offer. The food ladder recognises that support happens at different levels, from urgent crisis help to long-term community-led solutions.

Please select the stage of the food ladder that best describes your project or organisation:

Emergency Food Support – Providing free or low-cost meals, food parcels, or soup kitchens; shelters offering meals; or signposting people to other help.
Building Food Skills and Confidence – Teaching how to cook healthy, affordable meals; promoting healthy eating on a budget; running food pantries or community dining events where people can connect.
Community-Led Food Solutions – Cooperative food-growing or cooking projects; sharing stories or campaigns about food insecurity; reinvesting profits from food projects into local community needs.

Or tell us in your own words (max 2000 characters):
