On a Budget
Make “Buy British” the new motto for your shopping!
Not only is British food normally fresher, filling your body with all the right minerals and nutrients to look and feel great, it is also potentially cheaper, allowing you to save those few extra pounds for pints down the pub!
Moreover, the right kind of food can boost your energy and keep stress levels down - so instead of junk food why not try cooking a home-made meal? It's also a great socialising activity.
And remember to celebrate British Food Fortnight with your friends and family! For ideas on how to get involved click here.

Community Food Co-ops work by linking local volunteers, who run the food co-ops, to a local supplier, who is a grower and/or local wholesaler. A simple payment and delivery system is agreed which enables the volunteers to order and pay weekly in advance for the fruit and vegetable bags. Customers then collect their fruit and vegetables at an agreed venue during food co-op opening times and place their orders and pay for the following week. On average a family buying a bag of vegetables and a bag of fruit each week for a year saves £221 compared to the big supermarkets.
