We save food destined for landfill to turn it into meals for vulnerable people

Story

On May 13th, I will be donning a fruit costume and waddling the Bristol 10K. I'm running with a growing team of staff, volunteers and supporters of the Bristol charity FareShare South West to raise funds to expand their work, in response to the growing hunger issue in the UK. This year marks 10 years of tackling food waste and food poverty- and next year FSSW want to do more than ever!

FareShare South West saves perfectly good food from the food industry that would otherwise have gone to waste and redistributes it to over 150 charities, schools, food banks and community groups across the region. They in turn transform it into nutritious meals for vulnerable people! Last year they redistributed enough food for over 750,000 meals. 

My target is set at £300- that's enough to fund a Breakfast Club for an entire year, or enough food for 1,200 meals! Every pound donated means 4 meals for people in need, so every little bit helps. 

Thank you all!!
