Our members

The Arun & Chichester Food Partnership includes everyone locally who is working towards one or more of the aims of our Good Food Charter. Alongside the steering group and the two development officers, members are part of a networked local food system and a growing food economy which values food which is healthy, affordable, safe and nourishing as well as good for the planet, the community and the economy. 

We invite local organised groups (including businesses, local government, schools, charities, community groups and more, as well as self-employed individuals working in relevant fields) to become members.  

Members must be working in Arun &/or Chichester District. 

Members must be committed to the following: 

• Supporting the goals of the Food Partnership, as summarised in the Arun & Chichester Good Food Charter. 

• Dignity – providing a dignified service where users are treated with kindness and respect, fairly and without discrimination. 

• Transparency – there is full transparency around any costs or conditions to access the provision. 

• Collaboration – members must be open to collaborating with other organisations and partners towards our shared goals to improve the local food system, sharing best practice.  

• Sustainability – Where relevant, members must be committed to sustainable practices that work with nature and not against it.

Membership may be withdrawn if an organisation no longer meets the conditions of the membership agreement.
