Welcome to the first episode of Food Stories, a podcast from FareShare Greater Manchester. In this episode we want to share our story – who we are and what we do.
Last year, FareShare Greater Manchester rescued almost 2,000 tonnes of good-to-eat surplus food from going to waste. That food was redistributed to more than 300 charities and community groups across Greater Manchester and in real terms equated to 4.6 million meals. We would not be able to do the work we do without our fantastic volunteers who last year donated over 21,000 hours of their time to our operation.
In this episode we share a bit about what we do at our warehouse on New Smithfield Market and give a little insight into how we get that much needed food out into the community.
You can listen to our podcast here on our website as well as on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other podcast platforms too.
