In 2022 a group of churches across Bristol opened their doors to those in their communities struggling with the cost of living crisis as part of the nation-wide Warm Welcome Campaign.

At B&A we wanted to do something to help. We offered to do the cooking so that those hosting welcoming spaces and turning up their heating would also have a hot meal to serve their guests.

We sorted the food and they could get on with the work of serving their communities.

Within a matter of weeks we’d employed a full-time chef and B&A Meals was providing around 250 meals a week to 10 welcoming spaces across Bristol.

We thought it would just last the winter months but  2 years on we are going from strength to strength, and we now offer delivery in our new electric van!
