Zero Carbon Guildford is a Charity based in Guildford set up in 2022. Originally run entirely by volunteers, we now employ some members of staff as the project has grown. We have set up a Community hub, offering a physical space for all local environmental and social groups and projects to come together to tackle the climate and ecological crisis, and the social issues which share the same root causes as climate breakdown. Zero has set up a Community Fridge at its premises in Guildford - the first Community Fridge in the town. Our primary focus is to stop food waste. Food is freely available to all members of the local community, no referral necessary, but we make sure that those in need are aware of the Fridge and work closely with other groups and refuges. Other projects run by Zero include Rosamund Community Garden, Library of Things, River Testing, Baby Clothes Library, Home Energy Surveys, The Sustainable Business Network, Terracycle, Urban Greening. We work closely with the University of Surrey and other environmental groups.

Love Haslemere Hate Waste is our campaign to inspire and empower everyone in Haslemere to cut down waste. We exist to make waste-free living the norm and our ambition is to create a blueprint for other towns to follow suit. We've already made strides in cutting down on plastic, redistributing surplus food, running the Repair Cafe and providing a Library of Things for everyone in Haslemere. Help us drive change faster and cut down waste across our town.

Zero Hunger is a community-led food movement dedicated to reducing food insecurity, preventing loneliness, and tackling food waste across Hart, Rushmoor, Basingstoke & Deane and surrounding areas. We provide access to quality surplus food through our community outreach venues, helping individuals and families facing financial hardship while also creating welcoming, safe spaces where people can connect and feel supported. Our work helps save tonnes of perfectly good food from going to waste each year and redistributes it directly back into the community. We currently serve between 400 to 500 people and week. Alongside food support, we actively promote wellbeing, inclusion, and community engagement through volunteer opportunities and local partnerships. Our volunteers — known as Food Heroes — are at the heart of everything we do and help us create a positive, non-judgemental environment for everyone who accesses our services. We are always grateful for support in the form of surplus food donations, volunteers, and community partnerships. Additional support allows us to expand our outreach, reach more vulnerable people, and continue building stronger, healthier communities where no one goes hungry or feels alone.
