Real Food Ilkley is a community interest company (CIC) set up in 2015. The main purpose of Real Food Ilkley is to organise the monthly Fine Food & Local Produce Market held in central Ilkley on the first Sunday of each month (except January). The market benefits local producers and sellers, local residents and visitors to Ilkley. Two stalls at every market are offered free of charge to local community groups to enable them to raise awareness, recruit volunteers and raise funds. The take up of these stalls is high and many local organisations have greatly benefited. The monthly market is constantly developing and has become a "community hub" with regular and guest stalls as well as entertainment.
