City Harvest rescues food, people, and planet by preventing food waste, providing life-changing support to communities in every London borough through free food, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste.
We collect surplus food from retailers, distribution centres, farms, manufacturers, markets & wholesalers, film shoots and all parts of the hospitality sector, and deliver it to 350+ charities in every London borough.
Our recipients include homeless shelters, hostels, soup kitchens, mental health charities, community centres and kitchens, schools, family centres, children’s programmes, and domestic abuse refuges.
WHAT CAN YOU DONATE?
City Harvest can collect fresh, frozen, and ambient food. All vans have freezer and chiller capability. All food must be unopened and within its use-by date. City Harvest does not collect hot meals or canteen style food, open food or compromised packaging, food past its use-by date, and alcohol.
When the event closes at 4pm on Wednesday 23rd March please bring your donations to one of the collection points. The City Harvest and Montgomery Group Teams will be on hand to help. The organisers will be setting up 2 collection points at the IFE Hub (3739) & HRC Hub (T940).
