There is a need for an enterprise driven community organisation with the economy of scale and capacity to co-ordinate and develop diverse local food based activities, in a way that is: sustainable, understands, engages, improves health and wellbeing, supports personal development, provides opportunities, and makes food secure and accessible, for mental health service users and the community in general. HARP project partners collectively manage a number of food activities, including cafes, outside catering, and food production. Funding is becoming increasingly difficult to obtain, so there is a need to develop these existing facilities as a financially viable, independent and sustainable social enterprise. Project partners need to work together to develop a healthy local food system, linking these activities, co-operatively, increasing the turnover, and reducing the running costs of the various projects.
