Feeding Liverpool has been allocated a proportion of the Household Support Fund to support the food supplies of emergency food providers and community food spaces from 1st September 2025 to 31st March 2026. This is to enable these organisations to continue to support households experiencing food insecurity.
To receive a proportion of this fund, emergency food providers and community food spaces must:
- Fulfil all the criteria on the eligibility criteria page of the survey
- Complete the survey in full
- Agree to provide monitoring data on how this resource has been spent
The full terms of any allocation of funding will be set out in a Funding Agreement with Feeding Liverpool.
The primary purpose of this fund is for organisations to purchase food supplies to enable their existing activities to continue.
To enable Feeding Liverpool to make a fair allocation of funds, organisations will be asked during the survey to provide data about their regular food support activity during the week of Monday 16th June – Sunday 22nd June 2025. Please have this information to hand when completing the survey. If this was not a typical week for your organisation, you will be asked to choose another week in June which better represents your typical level of activity.
Organisations will be able to provide details about any of the following types of regular food support they provide:
- Emergency food parcels
- Community food spaces (e.g. food pantry, food union, community market, community shop)
- Community meals/meals which are included as part of an activity the organisation regualrly offers
- Any other regular food support the organisation offers
This funding cannot be used to support food-related activities which are aimed solely at people aged under 18 (e.g. a primary school breakfast club, holiday provision, after school club).
Unfortunately, without exception, any organisation whose survey response is received after the deadline of 11:59pm on Sunday 17th August will not be eligible for this fund.
If your organisation received funding via Feeding Liverpool’s Household Support Fund 6 in March 2025, please fill in this survey. This will also act as your application for Household Support Fund 7.
If your organisation has not received Household Support 6, please fill in this survey to apply for Household Support Fund 7.
We need to take care not to ‘double fund’ any work; if some of your food support work is in partnership with another organisation (for example, St Andrew’s Community Network or South Liverpool Foodbank), please liaise with them about who is best placed to receive the funds for that type of provision.
