At Alexandra Rose, we believe that access to healthy food is one of the most powerful tools for tackling health inequalities. Our work began more than a decade ago with Rose Vouchers for Fruit & Veg, helping families on low incomes to buy fresh produce from local markets. Over the past two years, a new strand of our work has begun to demonstrate how transformational food-based interventions can be when councils, community organisations and the third sector work together.
Now entering its third year, our partnership with the Tower Hamlets LBC and the Bromley by Bow Centre is delivering a pioneering Fruit & Veg on Prescription project, funded by Tower Hamlets Public Health and match funding from Alexandra Rose.
