"We save good food from going to waste and redistribute it to charities, schools and community groups"
We support a wide variety of organisations with their food needs, from homelessness charities to primary school Breakfast Clubs and from lunch clubs for the elderly to food banks giving out emergency food supplies. Our aim is to see an end to hunger and food waste in the South West and to make sure good food is put to good use.
The food we supply is fresh, varied and high quality. It is classed as surplus for any number of reasons which do not affect the food itself, from packaging errors to promotions ending. The food is donated from some of the big supermarket chains, as well as some regional and local food companies. FareShare South West follows stringent policies and procedures for storage and transportation to meet all food safety legislation.
As we deal with surplus food, we can never guarantee the exact food you’ll get. Instead, we build a food profile for each of our members that meets your organisation’s needs. Each week we put together an order for you based on the stock we have, and our volunteers pick and pack it for you. We receive everything from fish to fresh fruit, and from cheeses to beans. If we have excess stock, then you may well get some extra too!
