Description

This tender specification seeks to establish a, not for profit, Community Supermarket to support Rural Braintree. Priority areas for this tender are based on the Essex County Council, Levelling-Up geographies, and Working Families priority areas, overlaid with the 2019 Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). It is a requirement that any Community Supermarket is established with the involvement of other local, public, voluntary and community sector stakeholders, as well as local-residents and service users. Any proposals will need to demonstrate collaboration around this opportunity. The Community Supermarket model provides support for individuals who have experienced financial crisis, and who have been supported by Food Banks to regain some financial control. In addition, the model supports individuals and families who fluctuate above and below the line of financial security, by providing a consistent point of support to avoid them falling into financial crisis. Once established, the resource will form a local, community asset with the funding from Essex County Council made available to seed fund the development and start-up costs.
