This grant fund opens on Monday 13 October 2025. The deadline for applications to be submitted is Friday 14 November 2025 at 5pm.
What this funding is for
The grant fund scheme provides a total of £22,500 funding for community-based projects which will support the delivery of the priorities in the Warwickshire Food Strategy 2023-2026 (PDF, 129 KB). Applicants can apply for up to £1,000 per project. Projects must demonstrate how they will support one or more of the following Food Strategy priorities:
- Priority 1 - Improving food affordability and access. This includes projects which would help residents to access more affordable, local, healthier food choices and therefore help to prevent food insecurity.
- Priority 2 - Education and choice. Projects which extend the range of choices of healthy food available to people, through education, support and awareness - so that people and communities are better equipped to help themselves secure a more varied and healthy diet.
- Priority 3 - Sustainable choices. Projects which encourage and provide more locally sourced food choices, thereby helping to reduce ‘food miles’, and green projects which support the reduction and recycling of food waste.
