Bristol Local Food Fund

Bristol Local Food Fund (BLFF) is a voluntary project that raises and distributes funding for community food projects that are tackling food insecurity and supporting food justice in our city.

BLFF’s vision is to make Bristol a city of food justice, where everyone has access to nutritious, affordable, culturally appropriate food, regardless of their background or situation.

There is £70,000 in grant funding available for this round. We expect the average grant size to be between £5,000 – £10,000. They will prioritise applications for work that supports people and areas that are most affected by food insecurity, and will take intersectionality into account. These priorities include (but are not limited to):

People most affected: Single parents, disabled people, people from black and minoritised ethnic groups, carers, people identifying as LGBTQIA+, and younger people (aged 16-24)

Areas most affected:
Hartcliffe & Withywood, Filwood, Lawrence Hill, Stockwood, Southmead, Southville, Central, Avonmouth and Lawrence Weston, Lockleaze, Henbury & Brentry, Hillfields, Easton, Ashley, Eastville, St George Troopers Hill, Frome Vale, Knowle, and Hengrove and Whitchurch Park.
