The BBB project goals and actions:

  • Help improve the wellbeing of the families who use the BBB
  • Contribute to the reduction of food poverty/food insecurity via the ‘Pay As You Feel’ shop
  • Help improve nutritional intake
  • Increase parental involvement and engagement in ways that suit them (e.g. buying from the Pay As You Feel shop, volunteering with food growing aspects of the projects etc.)
  • To share lessons learnt with the next phase of BBB installation
  • To develop learning resources that will ensure BBBs become a focal point for experiential learning about food – nutrition, cooking and growing.
  • Measurably reduce food waste
  • Children will become more confident and literate about the connections between food, nature and the economy
  • Children and families will develop a solid level of food literacy and confidence around how to process, cook, and use food as a foundation for health through experiential learning.
  • Children will have an improved awareness of the benefits and potential of relocalising food production and distribution
  • Children will build enterprise skills though real-world learning, providing an authentic context to enable Curriculum for Wales, Rights Respecting Schools aims, Future Generation and Wellbeing Goals, Health Schools, United Nations SDGs and Eco Schools.
