We can't fight food poverty without your help! Sign up for our 100km in May Challenge, and raise money to help ensure families can give their children a healthy diet packed full of fruit & veg through our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project. buff.ly/4atBQ8Z
Everyone should have access to healthy and affordable food. We help families on a low income afford fresh fruit & veg for their children. Find out more about our work on our website.
"It’s great you can spend Rose Vouchers at the market..some fruit in the supermarket is expensive, but I can afford to buy it at the market. It means I can give my children expensive fruit & veg I couldn’t otherwise afford, like strawberries & raspberries" buff.ly/3LR2L5s
Not only does the brilliant @QueenGreensBus in #Liverpool provide much-needed access to fresh, healthy, affordable fruit & veg, but it brings the community together & fosters good relationships, too! As local food access should do. You can even pay using Rose Vouchers!

Very sobering reading and an urgent call to action. We're the world's sixth-largest economy and should be doing better.

These are amazing statistics to go alongside the qualitative reports of more energy, better digestion, better concentration, more physical activity...the list goes on. A healthy diet = a better life. Access to fresh food should be universal.

Through the Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project we give families the spending power to eat good food. Our research shows that for the thousands of families we help, their average intake of fruit & veg increases by 3 portions a day thanks to Rose Vouchers.
We all want children to have the healthiest start in life. This is why Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg was born, to help give families in need the means to buy the fresh fruit & veg of their choice. We have a lot of support for our work and know that together, change is possible.

"I feel happy to get the vouchers. I used to go to friends & family & see different fruit they had that we couldn’t get, but now we can buy it. My daughter is so happy to have new fruit & veg to try. She’s calming down as she gets what she needs." Fatima #Glasgow
Sending our warmest wishes to Muslims around the world in this holy month of Ramadan.
Once families are on our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project the amount of fruit & veg they eat increases by an average of 3 portions a day 55% of parents start eating at least 5 portions a day 🔼 from 15% 64% of children start eating at least 5 portions a day, 🔼from 7%

I had a fantastic evening at the ‘Good Food For All’ event hosted by @feedinglpool It was amazing to see a show of force from all the individuals and organisations committed to providing better food and better food security for people in the city. Inspirational.
When calories from unhealthy foods are almost 3x the cost of those from healthier choices, it's no wonder that cash-strapped families are forced into diet-related ill health... Something has to change.

Very worrying stats. The long term impact on health is huge with 60% of households buying less fruit and 44% less veg as a result of the #CostOfLivingCrisis. This will be particularly devastating in households with young children who will be missing out on essential nutrition.

This is what we need. Good food. That we can afford. You are what you eat.
At Ruchazie Pantry in #Glasgow, families can pick up a shopping trolley full of food staples for just £5 and then use our Rose Vouchers to choose a selection of fresh fruit & veg (pictured). This has transformed how families eat, helping them be healthier and happier.
Thank you to Nikita Sinclair, Interim Head of the Children’s Health and Food Programme at Impact on Urban Health, for highlighting our work at the House of Lords – Food, Diet and Obesity Committee earlier today. 1/4

Once families are on our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project the amount of fruit & veg they eat increases by an average of 3 portions a day 55% of parents start eating at least 5 portions a day 🔼 from 15% 64% of children start eating at least 5 portions a day, 🔼from 7%
We definitely hear this from the families we support through our projects. This idea that people choose not to eat healthily is a myth. It's lack of money and lack of access prevents people from eating enough fruit and veg.
“People weren’t able to put [fruit & veg] into their main budget, even though they desperately wanted it… the need is there, the money isn’t” New @BBCFoodProg shows how many citizens want healthy food, but can't afford it. #TheFoodConversation Listen 👉bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Rose Vouchers give families the spending power to eat good food. We work directly with children’s centres supporting families, alongside market traders, to provide weekly Rose Vouchers, which are spent on fruit & veg at local markets. So far, we've helped over 10,500 families.
Take on the challenge of a lifetime, all to raise money to help support families to buy fresh fruit & veg! From Thames Path Challenge to trekking Snowdon at Night, there's a challenge for everyone. ⛰️ Take a look at the full selection on our website: buff.ly/48tPlnY

“I started receiving the Rose Vouchers about 6 months ago, when staff at my playgroup recommended them to me for my youngest son, who was 7 months old at the time. I hadn’t heard of the vouchers before, but they’ve really helped us, I just want to say thank you." Susan #Southwark

This reinforces the reasons why we designed our Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg Project to support the under-5s & their families. Our evaluation shows 64% of children now eat at least 5 portions of fruit & veg a day once they're on the project, up from 7%. It's transformative!

Without Rose Vouchers, many families would be going without fruit & veg as food prices have remained stubbornly high. “Even with £4 a week, I can buy oranges, bananas, kiwis, grapes, all the fruit my daughter loves for snacks. - Melinda Please donate: buff.ly/3HQOyli
