Community Fridge Additional Activity funding

Hubbub in partnership with Co-op, The Rothschild Foundation, and The Starbucks Foundation are offering up to £6,000 to develop additional food initiatives for organisations that are already running open Community Fridges. The funding aims to support the development of new activities relating to cooking, growing, budgeting and using surplus food that fit into one of four themes:    

• Skills – To up-skill your community and raise awareness of sustainable, affordable, and heathy living.  E.g. workshops, events, cookbooks, or how-to-guides.    
• Affordable food – To try out new ways to increase access to local and affordable food.  E.g. food cooperatives, food box schemes or food markets.    
• Community Connection – To provide opportunity for their community to come together around shared food. E.g. community meals, coffee and chats, youth activities, and recipe shares.    
• Growing – To support community growing and increase the amount of edible food grown and shared locally. E.g. community gardens, greening projects and seed or plant sharing.
