We are calling on local authorities to do things differently.
Joining our new campaign means joining a movement committed to change. It means prioritising:
Cash first support for people in crisis

-
Providing an inclusive and welcoming space; minimising barriers to access; providing spaces to share food.
-
Offering clarity about what those providing and receiving support can expect; providing information about the community food project, how it works and why.
-
Ensuring that interactions are respectful and compassionate; including appropriate safeguarding culture and practices; where possible, offering a choice of food (or the provision of vouchers and hardship grants).
-
Offering opportunities for staff, volunteers and members to share their views, so that people with direct and relevant experience contribute and are involved in decision-making; creating opportunities for members to contribute in a range of ways (money, time, skills, etc.).
