The Affordable Food Network Coordinator will support and oversee the development of the Affordable Food Network (made up of social or community supermarkets and other affordable food initiatives in Essex), providing centralised support to social supermarkets and other affordable food initiatives. The coordinator will work as part of a countywide team to develop and embed a culture of peer support, peer learning, and network capability, ensuring the networkโ€™s sustainability and impact.

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. Uttlesford is a large rural district with a low population density. 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.
