Resources for food providers, volunteers and community organisations
The tool kit helps organisations think about how their work supports people experiencing food insecurity and how services can improve over time.
Resources can help providers share learning, understand local need and build more joined-up approaches to food support across Leeds.
Case studies are short stories about people accessing support. They can help providers understand the situations people face, what support made a difference, and what still needs to change.
They help explain real user journeys, reveal patterns in need and show how food support connects with issues such as housing, health, debt and wellbeing.
Useful case studies usually describe the person’s situation before support, what help they accessed, and what changed afterwards.
