MAP organises and hosts quarterly meetings of Marr Community Food, a network of food banks, pantries and other community food initiatives across the Marr area which brings together everyone in one virtual space to share challenges and information.

In January 2025, MAP employed Development Officer Lyza Riddell to help with delivery of Marr Community Planning Group’s (MCPP) Marr Community Food Plan.

You can join the Marr Community Food Network Facebook Group here or if you wish to receive updates by email, contact lyza@marrareapartnership.org.uk

MAP is also the administrator of the Marr Food Whatsapp group and we also have a board member on the steering group of the MCPP Food Plan Group.
