NO TO HUNGER

Project 229 is part of a network of organisations aiming to tackle hunger in Bedford Borough

8.4 million people in the UK are struggling to afford to eat. 


We want to reduce this number and help keep our community safe and healthy. A slow cooker only costs 21p to fuel a meal for five and we want to provide as many recipes as we can for everyone to choose from 


Share your meal ideas/recipes with us & your community across social media using our hashtag #NoToHungerInBedfordBorough
