Welcome to your community fridge! We provide a place where you can get good surplus food for free or donate food you know you won’t eat.
Let’s put a stop to good food needlessly going to landfill and fill our bellies. Did you know that the average family of four wastes £720 of food a year? And then there’s the businesses who have to adhere to stringent food guidelines, throwing away perfectly fine produce because they have had no alternative- now they do. This food does not have to be wasted- we can share it so it gets used. Let’s
put a stop to good food needlessly going to landfill, fill our bellies and come together. Our fridge is for everyone- come see what you can get! If you would like to donate or volunteer please get in touch.
is a non for profit community interest project run by Viking Community Fitness in conjunction with the Hubbub Foundation
