As a community group we provide free food to the local community that are in need. We are not a food bank but a hub to help with food waste and local poverty. We are currently in the process of becoming a CIC so will be registered with companies house. We provide staple foods via donations of food or money to the local community who find themselves in need. We do not discriminate and no one needs a referral or a voucher to come and get food. Over the last 3 years we have built up our name and are constantly helping the local public with food, either xmas food parcels or normal staple food parcels. With this we have opened a food hub in which anyone can come and get staple foods along with bread/fruit/veg and period products nappies and formula. We fund raise along side to help us. We probably help up to 50 families each time the hub is open. We have a few local business that help us with small donations but are in need of more, as we are helping more and more people each time. Especially with the cost of living crisis this hub is also helping local working families that are also struggling to make their money go far enough. At the moment we run via facebook and at the town hall in attleborough but are in process of trying to secure a permanent premisses that we can then be open more often to help more people. During covid we helped local business/care providers raising money for them. We have won a few local awards such as norfolk day heros award 2020 attleborough town community heros award 2023 and came runners up in bbc radio norfolk make a difference awards 2022. We work really hard to help as many people as possible and with neighbourly help we can help so many more. Breckland council currently helping us find a premises. We have a private facebook group and a food hub page

Surplus Kitchen incorporates Redistribution, Community, & Education through it's projects. Redistribution - We collect surplus goods from supermarkets which we use in our projects and through our main partner, Winton Parkstone Christadelphian Pantry (WPCP) who serve around 200-250 people a week. Community - Through The Bread Bin project we distribute surplus bakery products into local communities. Education - We want to show how to save food from being wasted, and how to produce something edible and yummy with it. The Bread Bin is a free community bakery which saves bakery products from being thrown out as waste by supermarkets, and distributes them into local communities. In it's first year it saved 8.8 tonnes of surplus bakery, and that number continues to grow. It currently has 5 public access locations across BCP which are open to the public, and it's on the Access To Food Map.
