This publication focuses on the work of community food initiatives working with older people and will be of use to community food initiatives in building and articulating the case for their work with older people and those considering developing work in this area.  It gives an overview of the needs, contexts and strategies engaged in developing food work with older people, described in the format of a simple theory of change model.  It is based on consultations with community food initiatives working with older people and there are illustrative models for each of their projects in the appendix.  There is also a brief review of the limited research evidence to support the contribution of this work to preventative spend.
