Tesco Fruit & Veg Grants

---

Every four months, three local projects are selected to be in the customer vote in Tesco stores throughout the UK, inviting customers to make a difference in their local community. Every project shortlisted for the vote receives funding but a vote using a blue token will make the difference to just how much funding each project receives – up to £500, £1,000 or £1,500.

Applications are open to all local good causes that support children and young people, with a particular focus on projects that incorporate provision of healthy food including fruit and veg, such as breakfast clubs, providing holiday club lunches or healthy snacks. 

Examples include:

• Breakfast/after school clubs that provide fruit and veg for pupils 
• Sports clubs that provide healthy food as part of the project or a much-needed half time boost
• Growing initiatives to grow your own fruit and veg or cooking classes using the food to learn
• Holiday clubs that provide healthy meals and snacks 
• Projects providing SEND provision with healthy snacks/meals 
• Youth clubs that provide a healthy meal/snack 
• Addressing holiday hunger amongst children outside of school time 
• Healthy eating projects that support families to cook healthy meals on a budget 
• Foodbanks to provide food support to families 

This is not an exhaustive list and other project ideas also welcomed.
