Food for Life Get Togethers
Food for Life Get Togethers uses good food to connect people of all ages through growing, cooking and eating together.
Around 200,000 older people go over a month without chatting to a friend or family member and almost half of older people in care homes consider their depression ‘a normal part of ageing’.
Food for Life are tackling both unhealthy eating and loneliness through community-led cooking and growing projects. Rooted in partnerships with groups of schools, nurseries and organisations supporting older people, Get Togethers brings people of all ages and backgrounds together through food.
