Case studies
Food poverty alliances receiving financial support from Food Power regularly report on the progress of their work in ‘snapshots’ so that others can easily read about their experiences and learning. Alliances aren’t able to include all of their work in these summaries, so they typically focus on just one aspect of their project.
- Involving experts by experience
- Maximising family income
- Developing a food poverty alliance
- Healthy Start
- Covid-19
- Building resilience
