Our Supporters
Without the help of our supporters, the project simply will not happen.
A Number of local churches, charities, small businesses support our work and we are working together to tackle food waste and hunger in our local area.
We wouldn't be able to do what we do without the surplus food we collect from our suppliers and also partners who help us with their regular donations and their time.
We would love to take this opportunity to say 'Big Thank You!'
