Food Stories Episode 11 : Rainbow Surprise

Food Waste Action Week begins today and we’re celebrating with the return of our Food Stories Podcast!

We took our microphone out to Crumpsall to chat to the amazing team behind Rainbow Surprise, one of our community food members, who are doing amazing things with surplus food to support their local community and people from further afield too.

 

Serving Crumpsall and beyond

 

Rainbow Surprise is a busy community hub which operates out of Crumpsall Community Hall. Run by husband-and-wife team, Shakar and Shabnam Hussain, the services on offer include emergency food parcels, a food bank, community café, a salon offering haircuts and a recently opened community garden and outdoor space which is used to grow fresh produce.

You can listen to the episode here (see player above) or search for Food Stories from FareShare Greater Manchester wherever you get your podcasts.
