🚐💚 Could you help us get more Welsh food on Welsh plates?

We’re welcoming a new retail partner, which means we expect to redistribute an extra 15 tonnes of surplus food every month to community organisations across Wales!

To help us get this food where it’s needed, we’re looking for volunteer drivers to join our team.

Our volunteer Paul shares what he enjoys about volunteering with FareShare Cymru and helping good food reach the communities that need it.

Could you spare some time to help us tackle food waste and support local communities? We’d love to hear from you!

During August and September, we were thrilled to welcome some amazing teams to our Cardiff warehouse. They packed veg boxes like absolute pros! 🥦 📦 From unloading deliveries to sorting surplus food, these teams rolled up their sleeves and made a real difference.

Volunteering with FareShare Cymru is physical, rewarding and great fun too. It’s a fantastic way to build team spirit, learn about food surplus, and see how small actions can strengthen communities across South Wales.

Over the last 2 months, we have been delighted to welcome:
Admiral (Travel and Group)
KPMG
Hilton
Intellectual Property Office
Puffin Produce

A massive thank you to all the teams who volunteered with us this month — you were brilliant. We loved having you with us! 💚

On Tuesday, we visited Dyfatty Junction to see how surplus food from FareShare Cymru is helping bring people together in the local community.

As a FareShare Cymru Community Food Member, Dyfatty Junction receives weekly deliveries of fresh fruit, vegetables and other surplus food. The team puts it to good use across the hub – from Soup Social Thursdays and lunchtime drop-ins to its weekly Free Food Corner, where people can take surplus food home.

We also heard how the food has helped provide a thank-you meal for local volunteers following a community litter-pick. 💚

It was brilliant to see how food that could otherwise go to waste is helping create meals, connections and opportunities for people in the community.

A big thank you to the Swansea Council and Enterprise Mobility for their support, including through Enterprise Mobility’s Fill Your Tank® programme.

🌱 Zero Waste Week

This Zero Waste Week, we’re giving one of our harder-to-use vegetables a little extra attention: celeriac.

It might not be the first thing you reach for, but there’s plenty you can do with it! Liam shows us three ways to make the most of this often-overlooked veg: roasted, in a comforting soup, and as a fresh remoulade.

A little creativity can go a long way when it comes to reducing food waste. Let’s make the most of what we have and give every vegetable a chance to shine. 🥬

🎥 Watch Liam’s Celeriac 3 Ways video below.

💚 Mae ein Hadroddiad Blynyddol 2025/26 yma! | Our Annual Report 2025/26 is here!

We’re really pleased to share our latest Annual Report – a chance to look back on a busy year at FareShare Cymru and, most importantly, celebrate the people who make our work possible.

From our volunteers and Community Food Members, to our food partners, supporters, funders and the wider FareShare Cymru team – thank you. So much of what we achieve is because of the people and organisations we work alongside every day. 💚

The report captures the food we’ve redistributed, the communities we’ve worked with, the volunteers who have given their time and the partnerships that have helped us make a difference across Wales.

There are lots of numbers in there, but behind every number is a story, a person or a community – and that’s what we’re most proud of.

📖 Read our Annual Report 2025/26:

💚 Rydym yn falch iawn o rannu ein Hadroddiad Blynyddol 2025/26!

Mae’n gyfle i edrych yn ôl ar flwyddyn brysur yn FareShare Cymru ac, yn bwysicaf oll, i ddathlu’r bobl sy’n gwneud ein gwaith yn bosibl.

O’n gwirfoddolwyr ac Aelodau Bwyd Cymunedol, i’n partneriaid bwyd, cefnogwyr, cyllidwyr a thîm FareShare Cymru – diolch. Mae cymaint o’r hyn rydym yn ei gyflawni yn bosibl oherwydd y bobl a’r sefydliadau rydym yn gweithio ochr yn ochr â nhw bob dydd. 💚

Mae’r adroddiad yn cynnwys y bwyd rydym wedi’i ailddosbarthu, y cymunedau rydym wedi gweithio gyda nhw, y gwirfoddolwyr sydd wedi rhoi o’u hamser a’r partneriaethau sydd wedi ein helpu i wneud gwahaniaeth ledled Cymru.

Mae digon o rifau ynddo, ond y tu ôl i bob rhif mae stori, person neu gymuned – a dyna’r hyn rydym yn fwyaf balch ohono.
