The Tesco Fruit & Veg Grants programme invites schools, registered charities and not-for-profit organisations supporting children to apply for up to £1,500 to improve access to fruit and veg. Applications are open to all local good causes that support children and young people across the UK.
Examples include:
- Addressing holiday hunger amongst children outside of school time
- Holiday clubs that provide healthy meals and snacks
- Breakfast/after school clubs that provide fruit and veg for pupils
- Projects providing SEND provision with healthy snacks/meals
- Youth clubs that provide a healthy meal/snack.
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 £1,500.
This funding programme is administered by Groundwork.
