Jennys Pasta is now available in social supermarkets around Middlesbrough thanks to the extraordinarily hard work and dedication from researchers from Fuse, clinicians from Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust , Teesside University and the Middlesbrough Food Partnership alongside ourselves. Together, this amazing coalition worked with people living with SMI to develop a range of nutritious recipes that can be transformed into affordable ready meals using surplus ingredients. The first batch, Lentil Bolognese, is now available in social supermarkets across Middlesbrough.
The pilot is the culmination of earlier research into food insecurity in the North of England, as well as into how people living with SMI can be supported to access healthy, affordable food, which was hosted by Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust in collaboration with Teesside University, Newcastle University , Fuse and Equally Well UK (a collaborative hosted by the Centre for Mental Health), and funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research, as part of their NIHR Research for Patient Benefit – Mental Health in the North programme.
We are proud of the hard work done by the partners and by our phenomenal Middlesbrough Food Partnership team to make a real difference to those living with SMI and tackling food insecurity. Well done, everybody: The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and we're proud to have taken that first step alongside you all in this initiative.
