The Food Chain exists to ensure people living with HIV in London can access the nutrition they need to get well, stay well and lead healthy, independent lives. We deliver meals and groceries, offer cookery and nutrition classes and communal eating opportunities to people living with HIV in London and their dependents.

Inspired by our practical response, hundreds of volunteers deliver our services, supported by a staff team of eight. People living with HIV often struggle to access the food they need to stay well, because of ill health, poverty, isolation and a lack of motivation to eat well, or limited skills or knowledge. Every service user is referred by a health or social care professional who has identified them in need of nutritional support. Each service user receives a Personalised Nutrition Care Plan designed specifically to meet their needs. By offering a tailored package of support, at the appropriate time, we help people to lead healthy, independent lives.
