Supporting inspiring student-led food enterprises

Our Student Eats programme provides student groups with start-up costs and mentoring to develop sustainable food enterprises.

This year, we’ve had 40 enterprises take part – 19 of which have begun trading their produce. So far, the inspirational participants have sold £17,684-worth of sustainable food, diverted 157.9kg of food from landfill, and racked up an amazing 3,004 volunteered hours.

On top of this, 41 universities and colleges are now part of our free Student Eats membership network, establishing or running growing sites on campuses across the UK.
