Mid Surrey Community Fridges

Mid Surrey Community Fridges The aim of the Fridge is to reduce food waste and to support local people. We collect food from local businesses and make it available to the community.

The Community Fridge is there for people and businesses in Mid Surrey to share perfectly good quality surplus food rather than throwing it away. It's about making use of the good but unwanted food and fighting against waste!

Another food rescue mission getting ready to roll!

Our van driver and assistant are busy loading up the van with surplus food before heading out to our Newdigate mobile stop.
Every box loaded is food that has been saved from going to waste and is now on its way to our local community.

It's teamwork like this that makes our Community Fridges possible.

Have you visited our Newdigate mobile stop on Tuesdays at 2pm? Tell us what you love about it — or tag someone who should know about it!

Reducing food waste doesn't have to mean completely changing the way you live.
Sometimes it's just freezing something before it goes off, using up what's already in the fridge or sharing food you don't need.

Small actions add up.

And that's exactly the thinking behind Community Fridges.

Which of these five do you already do — and which one could you start this week?

Before something goes into the bin, take a second look.

That slightly soft vegetable might make a great soup.
Those bananas might become banana bread.
Leftover vegetables could become a curry, pasta sauce or omelette.

Food doesn't have to look perfect to be delicious.

What's the best "use it up" meal you've ever made?

We'd love to steal your ideas!

Herbs are a brilliant way to add colour and flavour to food, and they're also a great way to make use of ingredients that might otherwise be forgotten at the back of the fridge.

And if you have more fresh herbs than you can use, freezing them is a simple way to make them last longer.

What's your favourite herb?

Basil, rosemary, parsley, mint, coriander or something else?

September is here, and Organic September gives us a chance to think about where our food comes from and the impact our food choices can have on the environment.

But there's another simple thing we can all do:

Waste less food.

Whether food is organic or not, good food deserves to be eaten.

Do you look for organic food when you're shopping?

Tell us why — we'd love to hear different perspectives.

Crates Galore! But they need new homes. Can you help? Can you use some plastic or wooden crates for a project or in your garden?

These crates once delivered food to us from the supermarkets but now they are piling up and we don't want to throw them away to rot in landfill.

If you can repurpose them, please email [email protected] to arrange a collection.

If you can help, please click the link to complete the form on our website. If you have a friend that can help too, even better with two pairs of hands so send them the link too.

We have a small EV van that is looking for someone to drive it around. Fancy taking it for a spin? Then you could help us drive food to one of our mobile stops in North Holmwood. Our mobile stop on Friday lunchtimes is looking for a new driver to get the food out to our local community, saving it from going to waste.

If you are willing and able, we would love to hear from you.

Drop us a comment below, email [email protected] or visit the volunteer page on our website.

Help us reduce food waste and support a better environment for all in our community.
