BRITE Box

The box that keeps on giving…

What we do

Our BRITE Box project sends fantastic recipe kits with all the ingredients and an illustrated recipe guide to families to cook a healthy meal on a budget. Particularly, though not exclusively, focused on reaching those who have been identified by schools and youth groups as being at risk of food insecurity, BRITE Box aims to bring families together around food, building skills and confidence to enjoy cooking and eat well.

BRITE Box is delivered by over 30 schools in 11 different UK locations.

I would like to thank you, not only has this helped out a lot with trying new food, but it has given me and my sons something to enjoy creating tasty and healthy food, plus one less stress on a Friday, Thank you

When she goes to school [9-year-old] she says mommy I can’t wait to bring my BRITE Box to cook it by myself so she’s so happy and even me, I am very happy.

It is an awesome scheme to be a part of and quite literally given us a meal some days when we’ve run out and it’s exciting

I’m thankful that we can experience BRITE Box. I think this should be a must in every family as it really helps to have and learn a variety of recipes from different countries, not more left over shopping and the most importantly I have happy children with proper meals on the table
