Recipe kits

Each week we prepare over 150 recipe kits which are delivered to local schools and food clubs

How it works

As well as providing a bag of fresh ingredients for free, we aim to empower people experiencing food insecurity with the skills and inspiration to create their own delicious, budget-friendly meals from scratch.

The recipes are all easy to follow and serve four people, with handy tips for batch cooking, using up leftovers and how to save energy, too!

Who helps us

Our fantastic team of volunteers help to build our kits, weighing out and packing every bag with a different recipe each week. These are then delivered to our partner organisations, or collected from our kitchen, ready to be distributed across the South Bristol community.

If you're interested in becoming a volunteer who helps with recipe kits, we'd love to hear from you!

"The kits have really helped me to try new things that I felt nervous about trying before. It’s helped me gain confidence with how to cook with unfamiliar ingredients."

"I cooked a dish with chickpeas for the first time. My family liked it very much. Something different than our traditional meals. It will definitely appear on our table more often!"
