New Tesco funding for projects supporting children and young people – Apply Now
Tesco Fruit & Veg grants is now open for applications. Schools, registered charities and not-for-profit organisations supporting children and young people can apply for up to £1,500 for projects that improve access to healthy food.
Projects can focus entirely on healthy eating (e.g. breakfast clubs, cooking projects, food growing projects or food banks) or just incorporate an element of healthy eating as part of other activities (e.g. healthy snacks as part of kids clubs, nutrition sessions as part of sports events, or incorporating some fruit trees or vegetable beds into a school garden refresh).
Greenspace Scotland have some great examples of previous healthy eating projects on their website here, where you can also find details for the team of friendly Community Enablers who can support applicants.
You can apply via the link on their website, or directly on the Tesco Fruit and Veg grant page: Fruit and Veg Grants – Tesco Fundraising | Tesco PLC. This page also has lots of additional information including the guidance notes. You can also nominate an organisation to consider applying: Tesco Fruit and Veg for Schools Nomination Form.
If you have previously applied to a Tesco grant please make sure you have submitted your completion report before reapplying for a new grant.
