Save the World Club (SWC) is an environmental creative arts, education and entertainment charity. At SWC’s heart is a commitment to improving the well-being of individuals and communities and protecting the environment demonstrating imaginative skills and solutions and having fun, so we can all live in healthier and more sustainable ways. SWC was set up 30 years ago by Des Kay. The organisation was primarily concerned with Des using recycled materials to create unique kinetic and mechanical structures which told children and family audiences stories of waste and gave other important environmental messages. After many successful years, Professor Kayoss is a legend and SWC has grown to an organisation with thousands of committed supporters. Over the years, we have created Award-winning large community mosaic artworks with thousands involved throughout the process of creation. Using waste materials, many are on display around Kingston Town and the Borough. Our remit for cutting waste extends to monitoring what gets thrown away, and rescuing items able to be recirculated, either as themselves, or through upcycling to something else. We are also key collectors of surplus food that we distribute daily, to local charities, institutions and others in need.

Social enterprise that works with the local community to get more food waste on to plates. Enabling every person to help rescue food and repurpose it. Everyone in the community can help and everyone can benefit and together we can build a stronger community and a brighter future for our planet Waste to Plate runs a community shop in Thames Ditton and operates a donation model as a contribution towards our overheads . We have a quota of food which can be taken for FREE eg fruit , veg , fridge and freezer items, refill station , unlimited bread, storage cupboard items . The neighbourly collection items go to support this along with supporting our soup initiative for teens living in food poverty studying external exams - where we provide them with food on a daily basis to make their soup In addition to that we buy in surplus food at a very low cost or access free food through our own direct partnerships and make this available at a low cost through a donation model to cover the cost of the food purchases and the running costs of the community shop .
