Cornwall Food Action has been running for 8 years working with food producers and supermarkets in Cornwall to minimise surplus food from going to waste. We collect surplus food from producers and supermarkets and redistribute it that day to vulnerable people in mid-Cornwall in order to reduce surplus food being wasted, and helping local people in need. The food is distributed directly to those in need through supporting organisations that help the homeless, elderly, and people on low incomes, and directly to individuals via foodbanks and larders. By matching food to individuals’ specific needs and encouraging them to only take what they can use, we ensure that no food goes to waste. The charity is run on a non-profit basis by a small group of volunteers that collect and distribute the food in the local community. The food is provided free of charge and no items are resold. The project is managed by a volunteer holding a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate, and all food is inspected prior to distribution and open or unsafe goods aren’t accepted. - The prevention or relief of poverty - Environment/conservation/heritage - Children/young people - Elderly/old people - Disability - Other charities or voluntary bodies - Provides services

At Trenance Childcare we provide high quality care and education at affordable prices for families in Newquay and the surrounding areas. We provide full day care from birth to 5 years as well as a breakfast and afterschool club for children who attend Trenance Learning Academy. We have made plans as to what we would like to do with our available space. Our allotment is beginning to take hold and our children love to plant and watch their crops grow. We would like to renovate our outdoor area to ensure new and exciting play and learning opportunities for all the children in our care.

We run a community larder to support those in food need in an area of rural Cornwall. We seek food surplus and food donations
