Week in, week out, we nourish the hungry and lonely in our communities with healthy meals and great conversation, using food which would otherwise go to waste. With over 85 Projects across our network, our volunteer-run Projects dish up over 3,000 meals a week for anyone who needs them.

Situation
Food poverty and loneliness are growing issues in the UK, exacerbated by the cost-of-living crisis which has pushed up household bills dramatically.With numbers attending our Projects rising, the need for our provision is clear. Last year we saw a 57% increase in the number of guests eating with us. Additionally, for those at risk of loneliness, Christmas can be a particularly isolating time.
Solution
FoodCycle is a lifeline to many in the enduring cost-of-living crisis. Yet our Projects provide so much more than just food. By offering a safe, welcoming space to enjoy a free, healthy 3-course meal in the company of others, FoodCycle knits together local communities, becoming a hub for people to come and eat together.
