The Uttlesford Community Supermarket will increase the proportion of people able to live healthy lifestyles by giving convenient access to affordable, healthy food and ingredients close to where they live.

We will therefore provide a Mobile Community Supermarket, delivered by a partnership of TAWS and UCAN, and including other local, public, voluntary and community sector stakeholders.
