My current project within studio focusses on food insecurity, the lack of community
Local Food First CIC (LFF), in partnership with Oldham Council Community Food Growing Project, are renovating an abandoned community allotment in Oldham to create the Wildbrook Community Food and Growing Hub. This site aims to improve access to affordable and nutritious food, principally through growing projects along with improving access to green space and nature. This is crucial as the neighbourhood of this site is in one of the most deprived areas in England and Wales and displays high levels of health inequality and food insecurity. As the capacity and demand to grow more produce increases, LFF is aiming to create a rainwater capture scheme to store and distribute water across the site and this project will explore creative design solutions to support this aim.
