The BRITE Box project continues to go from strength to strength, enabling Voices of Hope, who run the project, to help more Elmbridge families facing food insecurity.

With support from Walton Charity, BRITE Box expanded its service into Elmbridge last year - providing meal kits to families from seven local primary schools. A further community grant of £64,000 over three years, will enable the project to provide meal kits to 180 local families.

Each week, during the school term, the BRITE Box team of volunteers carefully prepare and pack the meal kits which are then delivered to families identified at risk of food insecurity. Each box contains an illustrated recipe guide and all the ingredients to prepare a healthy meal, on a budget, for a family of five.

This hands-on practical approach aims to bring families together around food, building skills and confidence to enjoy cooking as well as eating healthy meals.
