The Covid-19 crisis has revealed the stark inequalities in UK society. Many vulnerable people have had more difficulty accessing food, so third-sector organisations have mobilised emergency food provision. They have also expanded community food-growing initiatives, which enhance participants' well-being, strengthen social cohesion, localise food provision and thus build future resilience. This project will investigate the expansion of community cultivation during the Covid- 19 crisis, its benefits, social barriers and means to overcome them, especially for more vulnerable marginalised social groups, with the aim to strengthen third-sector capacities for such inclusion. Through participatory digital story-telling, this project will work with third-sector partners in community cultivation to elicit participants' feelings, aspirations, social connections and multiple benefits from community food activities. This knowledge will identify the most effective strategies that have been deployed during the Covid-19 crisis, and devise ways to share and promote them. Thus the digital story-telling process has a dual purpose: a research method and a means to promote better practices through our third-sector partners. As a practical impact, food growing activities will strengthen their engagement with vulnerable marginalised people, thus helping to overcome inequalities. Based on the digital assets and research insights, the project will provide an open-access online capacity-building programme for community food programmes, so that they can outscale similar benefits around the country. This impacts will promote better mental health, well-being and better access to healthy food; they will also spread agri-food practices that enhance social resilience, and thus provide an alternative to the unhealthy, unsustainable agrifood system.
