Are you looking for a way to actively help reduce food waste and food poverty? Come along and meet our fantastic team at the Felix Project. Our volunteers are at the forefront of our work, delivering, collecting and sorting surplus food to benefit charities across London. Despite living in one of the richest cities in the world, many Londoners struggle to feed themselves and their families properly. The problem is that making sure everyone gets a proper meal is expensive. And yet hundreds of tonnes of surplus food are thrown away in our city every day, even though there’s nothing wrong with it. At the Felix Project we want to see good food go to good causes. Our cause commemorates a compassionate boy named Felix who noticed the injustice of food poverty at a football tournament, when he was upset to discover that almost none of the opposing team of 10-year-old boys from South London had eaten anything that day. Our mission is simple - to collect that surplus food from food suppliers and distribute it to charities in their local area. So far, we work with 23 charities feeding 420 Londeners every week! These amazing charities turn the donations into healthy meals for their clients, including homeless people, the elderly, those with mental health issues, sufferers of domestic violence, and other at risk or vulnerable groups. Here's how it works. We collect edible surplus food that supermarkets and wholesalers are unable to sell. Our friendly and energetic volunteer team sorts through the donations to make sure they are good quality. Once we're happy with the food, we distribute it across our local communities to charities that feed the most vulnerable groups in our society. This surplus would otherwise go to landfill or anaerobic digestion - we harness its potential to bring nourishment and energy to people who need it most. What's more, the food donations save the charities money that can go towards their important work. We'd love you to sign up to one of our volunteer events! With your help, we'll continue diverting food from going to waste and supplementing healthy meals that bring strength and inspire change within our city's communities.

We are a Family Hub in North west Westminster. We would like to set up and run a daily breakfast club for all local families who find themselves in need. This would be a social place to meet and share a healthy breakfast without the stigma of visiting a food bank. We know that many of our parents skip meals so that their children can eat, rather than ask for help. By extending our welcome to all comers without the need for referral, we aim to make our breakfasts inclusive to all. We need a source of healthy breakfast foods, such as bread, fruit, cereals, yogurt, juice and milk. You could provide surplus food or money to buy food. We would be very grateful!
