Help reduce food waste – take some food from the Community Fridge
WATCH OUT FOR NEWS OF GRAND OPENING IN JULY
THE STORY SO FAR
Food waste is a big issue in the UK!
The average family throws away £470 worth of food every year.
Most food waste in the UK(4.1 million tonnes) is avoidable and could have been eaten had it been better managed.
One Solution: Community Fridges
Community fridges are one tried and tested way stopping good food ending up in the bin. Surplus food is donated by local businesses and members of the public and is then available for collection by people who need it.
What’s next for Community Fridges?
Pill & District Community Fridge is part of a growing network across the UK. We hope you enjoy your Community Fridge and experience the many benefits of sharing good food and reducing food waste.
FREE FOOD FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY
By taking some food from the Community Fridge not only are you helping yourself you will help reduce food waste.
You can donate any surplus home-grown fruit and veg or packets and tins of food you won’t use. Food must be within ‘use by date’ and undamaged. We are not allowed to accept home cooked food.
If you would like to help with the running of the fridge or collecting food donations, please email louise_osborne422@yahoo.co.uk
