The Community Fruit & Veg Project
The objectives of the Project are:
To improve the health of people in Hastings, Rother and surrounding areas by making it easier for them to access affordable fruit, vegetables and other local produce.
To increase the availability of fruit, vegetables and other local produce in Hastings, Rother and surrounding areas.
To source local fruit, vegetable and other produce whenever possible.
To operate in an environmentally sustainable manner.
To target groups of people who currently have a low intake of fruit, vegetables and other produce.
To create volunteering, training and employment opportunities so that local people can play a full part in the community and take an active role in the regeneration of Hastings, Rother and surrounding areas.
To work in partnership with other appropriate organisations.
We work in partnership with Autism Sussex and provide extensive opportunities for their service users.
