About
Essex County Council awarded a contract to Hadleigh Farm Estate and Divine Assembly Ministries (Boaz Project) for the establishment of two not-for-profit Community Supermarkets, one in Canvey Island, Castle Point (Lot 1) and one in Greenstead, Colchester (Lot 2).
The contract, valued at £190,699.92, provided seed funding for development and start-up costs.
The priority areas were based on Essex County Council's Levelling-Up geographies and Working Families priority areas, overlaid with the 2019 Indices of Multiple Deprivation.
The Community Supermarket model supports individuals who have experienced financial crisis and those fluctuating above and below financial security, with the programmes intended to become local community assets.
