Let's introduce you to Blend Culinary Foundation
Purpose on every Plate
At the heart of Blend Family is the Blend Culinary Foundation (BCF), our not-for-profit arm, and the driving force behind our mission to use food as a tool for positive change.
Yes, we build vibrant food halls, but BCF is where our deeper purpose comes to life. As a registered Community Interest Company (CIC), it’s how we turn values into action: supporting independent talent, tackling food insecurity, and building more inclusive, connected communities.
Our mission is simple, but powerful: Use food as a force for good.
That means championing food education, increasing access to nutritious meals, and celebrating the cultures and stories that make up our diverse cities.
Supporting Our Community
Our Kitchen at Cambridge Street Collective
We’re proud to operate a dedicated BCF kitchen at Cambridge Street Collective, Sheffield.
This space is more than just a kitchen, it’s a hub for hands-on learning, shared meals, and community-led initiatives. From cookery sessions and skills workshops to fundraising events and food donations, it’s where social impact and hospitality meet.
