Woking Foodbank is a local project, using volunteers, who collect, sort, store and distribute food donated from within the community. Our Foodbank provides three days worth of emergency food to local people in crisis. Visitors to our Foodbank are referred via local frontline agencies and charities such as Woking Borough Council and such charities as the York Road Project and YMCA Woking. There are many people in the Woking area who are living in poverty, despite popular misconception. Woking Foodbank is here to help people or families in need by providing emergency supplies of food to stop hunger. Our support is not a means to an end, but it can bring relief to members of our community who are in a crisis and cannot afford to eat. In a time of crisis, the food we offer along with a feeling that they are understood and that local people want to help them makes a real difference to our Foodbank visitors.

Food & drink saved at Knaphill Community Fridge 2025 is 80,223 kilos! Thank you for supporting us throughout the year. A Community Fridge is a fridge into which anyone can put food, and from which anyone can take food. It will aim to utilise the redundant source of food in Knaphill, Brookwood and surrounding area whilst raising awareness of food waste issues and the impact on the environment. It will enable us to share our abundance, minimise waste and source free food that would otherwise be thrown away. It helps us support local businesses by collecting their surplus food and making available to the community. The average UK family wastes £470 a year by throwing away food and drink which could have been eaten, and £3 billion is wasted by food sectors. Despite growing awareness of food waste, there are few easy ways for people or businesses to get food near its 'sell by' date to others. (Source:Hubbub)
