OUR CORE VALUES

01. Education

Within our products and services we strive to educate the community in some key areas; Food Security, Food Science & Nutrition, Ecology, Biodiversity, Community & people skills, alongside this our cooking classes naturally boost other skills such as mathematics, finance, reading, writing & creativity as well as boosting overall health and well-being. We are aiming to become a hub of knowledge and education and be able to provide free education in person and online to as many people as possible.

02. Inclusivity

We strive to include people from all cultural backgrounds, financial circumstances, and socio-economic status. We often provide free sessions to those struggling to a”ord the costs and will use profits gained from sales of any of our paid products and services to ensure we can continue to run projects such as the community-food-programme where we will distribute food parcels, food education & activities to children and their families struggling with their health and well-being with lack of financial means in the local area.

03. For families

Our focus on providing food, and food education for children and their families, is important to us as we want to provide education & support to the next generation to ensure that our work is sustainable, and help reaches far for generations to come. We tend to lean towards children so we can incorporate a fun, relaxed approach to teaching as well as incorporating interactive aspects to our sessions such as art and storytelling to boost the FUN aspect, because if it’s not fun, who’s learning? We like to see Food Troops as One Big

04. Scientific

We base all of our products on services on the latest peer-reviewed scientific data as much as possible. We follow journals that feature studies in the areas of paediatric nutrition, gastroenterology, food science and nutrition, food security, food technology, nutritional psychology and mental health and eating behaviours.

05. Sustainability

This is key to our business model, we aim to ensure all of our projects, products and services can stand the test of time; to ensure all of the above are incorporated into all of our projects ensuring they are all up-to date and relevant with the current times and issues we face. Currently, we are aware that the current methods we have for producing, distributing, selling, buying and consuming food are not sustainable and we are doing what we can to help this situation. We are focusing on ‘waste and waistlines’ as our key areas; waste being food waste (we will teach people how to reduce their food waste as well as use surplus food where possible as well as work hard to reduce any waste we produce as a business) and waistlines.. by providing education to those in need around healthy eating and ensuring we are all gaining su!cient nutrition in our food. We will always put the Planet and our people first before any profit

MISSION STATEMENT

We are on a mission to ‘target food waste and waistlines’ by providing food & food education to those in need through educational programmes, and through our products and services. Our mission is to boost the overall number of vegetables in our diets, redistribute surplus foods, improving the health of our users and the planet at the sam

Educational

By educating others on basic culinary skills and nutritional information, we hope that people will feel more freedom to cook and prepare their own meals from scratch. Culinary confidence can also be unlocked with education on food safety.
