Our vision is a community where food is valued, not wasted. Our mission is to redistribute food and promote food waste reduction for environmental and social good.
Since April 2016, we have collected good surplus food from supermarkets, manufacturers and farms and shared it with local charities and community groups, saving them money so they can do more. Our community partners support the homeless, the old, the vulnerable and those on low incomes.
We also support community Foodshare Tables and Fridges where everyone is welcome to collect a few bags of food to help stop food waste and stretch household budgets.
We are a small charity from a small town making a big impact.
You can read more about our work in our latest Annual Report.
The Shrewsbury Ark reported that we saved them approx. 55% of their food budget. Freeing up budget means groups have more to spend on their core services.
All donations made to Shrewsbury Food Hub go towards rescuing surplus food and supplying it to those who need it.
Surplus food donated to us is redistributed into our local community rather than going to waste. This also helps us to educate on food waste.
We couldn’t do what we do without our volunteers. If you’d like to join us, find out more about vacancies available or how you can help.
If you would like to donate via post, cheques should be made payable to Shrewsbury Food Hub. Please post to:
Shrewsbury Food Hub, Roy Fletcher Centre, 17 Cross Hill, Shrewsbury, SY1 1JE
The good work we do wouldn’t be possible with our dedicated team of volunteers. Our 140+ strong team of amazing volunteers are supported by a small team of paid staff who keep us focused on achieving our mission.
