Do you love food, haste waste and want to make a difference to the community? 

Then we need you!

We are looking for volunteers with access to a vehicle to help us collect surplus food from our partner supermarkets each week. This food is turned in to soup by us every Monday, redistributed to Family Action 'Food Club' in Lockleaze as well as other community organisations and individuals at risk of food insecurity. 

What to expect

  • We collect surplus food from Waitrose Westbury park on Thursday evenings, and Tesco Eastville Park on Friday and Saturday evenings.
  • Volunteers will drive to the supermarket and collect the donation and then deliver it to the project leader in Montpellier to be sorted and delivered to those who need it. 
  • Volunteers will be provided with training by the project leader as well as gloves, storage bags and crates for the donations. 
  • We support and respect all of our volunteers and are an inclusive and accepting organisation. 

So far, we have saved over 3 tons of food from going in the bin! By volunteering with us you will be continuing to help fight food waste and feed families. 

Even volunteering once a month really helps.
