Read our Impact Report 2023-24

We’re thrilled to share our 2023-24 Impact Report. It showcases what we have achieved in fighting food poverty and stopping food waste. This year, we made significant strides in improving the lives of people in our community. At the same time, we worked hard to protect the environment.

We supplied 4.6 million meals to 306 charities and community groups. We also saved 1,929 tonnes of food from going to waste. We’re proud of the lasting impact we’ve had.

None of this would be possible without the dedication of our volunteers, donors and supporters. They enable us to achieve so much every year.

Building stronger communities through sustainable solutions

Our work is more than just food redistribution. It’s about creating sustainable solutions that help our communities thrive. We aim to reduce food waste while addressing the issue of food insecurity. Our services reach individuals and families in need, providing them with nutritious food at no cost, making a real difference in their lives.

Inside the report, you’ll find:

• Inspiring stories from the communities we serve. Our partnerships with local organisations and charities continue to be at the heart of our work.
• Insights into how we source and redistribute surplus food. Learn more about our extensive network of food suppliers and our logistics operation that ensures food gets to where it’s needed most.
• An overview of how we are helping people back into work with our employability programme. Our training and support initiatives empower individuals to develop new skills, gain confidence, and improve their job prospects.

We’re incredibly grateful for every donation, hour volunteered and all the support that’s helped us move forward this year. Your involvement truly makes a difference in tackling food poverty and fighting waste. We’re committed to continuing this vital work and growing our impact over the coming year.
