ALDI SUTTON IN ASHFIELD - MANSFIELD RD

Team Foodshare Rainworth, Blidworth and Surrounding areas was set up in 2017 by the Registered Charity The Social Action Hub in response to the growing need to support local communities who are suffering from food insecurity AND to tackle the ever growing food waste that is both frustrating and needless. Anyone can be a member! You can help us tackle the food waste by collecting perishable items from us, such as bread, fruit and vegetables, that are on or near their use by or best before date. Or you might find this weeks bills are making the budgeting tight and popping in will reduce the budget burden. We are open: Monday & Thursday 10am - 2pm Wednesday 12pm-3pm & 4pm-7pm Our service is not means tested, you do not have to be in receipt of benefits, we don’t need proof of income - We are open to all. - Shops & Local People donate items to our Social Supermarket they no longer need or are able to stock on their shelves. We also purchase surplus food at a reduced cost. Our baskets cost just £4.50 or £6 - depending on which one you choose. ALL food from Neighbourly donations are a part of our FREE section at The Social Supermarket as well as our Youth Community Fridge for Children & Young People.

Pulp Friction Smoothie Bar CIO is a charity that employs and supports Learning Disabled and Autistic adults. We train our members to prepare, cook and serve fresh food at our Community Cafe at Bestwood Park Church and our canteen at the Joint Nottinghamshire Police and Fire Headquarters. We run regular SuperKitchen social eating events in community venues and offer a small outside catering service. Our Members also run our pedal-powered smoothie bars at public events and in public places. Based in Nottingham, we take our smoothie bar to local events, schools, youth clubs, trade fairs and more. Customers can make their own smoothies whilst having fun and getting some exercise! All our members work at their own pace and to their own strengths in a fun, friendly and supportive environment. With your help, we will continue developing their work-readiness, social and independence skills. We need food donations, money to buy aprons and uniforms, as well as willing volunteers to work alongside our members or give us IT support. Thank you!

We reach out to our local community with food parcels and also meals. We fight to alleviate poverty and make sure people have food to eat and also ensure that food is not wasted. We also provide support to children and families in the community. We are able to achieve our vision and carry out our activities through free will donations and support from community members, food surplus which we share to people.
