In 2021 Community Roots CIC had a vision to bring together organisations who were supporting their communities around food poverty, inspired by a series of community organisational conversations funded by GFFP's Thirty Percy Grant. Food Justice workshops were co-designed and facilitated amongst 30 key stakeholders and community groups, with emergent themes used to shape the community conversations (please find the outcomes from the Food Justice Workshop here).  Alongside this, GRCC was also engaged to design and conduct a Parish Survey, allowing a broad range of voices to be heard. These findings and associated report is available from GRCC.

In 2022  Feeding Gloucestershire launched their vision,  mission and aims, and how these would be delivered. This Statement of Strategic Intent was sent out to the organisations for feedback and input, and a constitution was drafted. Feeding Gloucestershire were fortunate to receive funding from Gloucestershire County Council and contracted a Project Manager and a Network Coordinator.  They also supported GFFP’s application for Sustainable Food Places membership, match funding a Sustainable Food Places grant to employ a Sustainable Food Coordinator for 2 years - the GREAT Food Gloucestershire campaign grew from this strand of work and successfully achieved Bronze Award for Gloucestershire in 2023.

In 2024 Feeding Gloucestershire evolved to become a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, recruiting new Trustees and Programme Director, and securing funding to continue promoting more healthy and equitable food across the county.
