Flat Pack Meals is a collaboration between Drumchapel L.I.F.E. and CCA. It began life as an artist-led project to create a women’s co-operative in Drumchapel that would increase access to healthy affordable fresh produce. Following on from the work of Wochenklausur and Alex Wilde on the project, artist Clementine Sandison spent a year exploring people’s relationship to food in Drumchapel.

With the support of a team of committed local volunteers and part-time Volunteer Co-ordinator Amber Cully, affordable meal bags known as Flat Pack Meals are now being sold on a weekly basis from different pick up points in Drumchapel. Clementine teamed up with digital artist Kim Beveridge to document the journey which led to the creation of Flat Pack Meals. They did this through audio and video interviews, stills photography, community meals and vox pop recordings. People’s memories of “tottie rustling” from the fields as children helped to open up questions about how access to fresh locally grown food has changed over the years and led to the creation of this film.
