FareShare Midlands tackle food poverty by redistributing good quality food from producers and retailers. Rescuing food which would have been destined for the landfill. We distribute around 12 tonnes of food a week to charitable community organisations working with disadvantaged individuals.

The food system is under pressure, and it's not a future problem. It's happening now.

With global uncertainty, pressure on food supply chains and rising demand for support, many charities are facing increasing challenges.

For the communities we support across the Midlands, this matters. Households are already struggling to afford the basics. They have no buffer left. And the community organisations supporting them are facing rising costs and tighter supply.

This summer, we're keeping food moving, and we're sharing the story of what's really happening on the ground.

Some of our volunteers have been part of the FareShare Midlands family for more than 10 years đź’š

A whole decade of early mornings, heavy trays of potatoes, warehouses smelling of bananas… and pure community spirit!

Their commitment has helped us grow, support more charities, and redistribute more good-to-eat food across the Midlands than ever before.

To our long-standing volunteers - thank you for sticking with us through every season, challenge, and success. You are truly part of the heart of FareShare Midlands 🌟

Today is all about our ✨corporate volunteers✨

Many of whom don’t know much about FareShare Midlands when they first step through the door. But they finish their shift feeling a sense of accomplishment you just don’t quite feel in the office.

Thrown into a high vis vest and forced into the finest steel-capped toe boots… our corporates get stuck in - helping us sort through food, pick orders and load vans, every hour really does make a difference.

Thank you for giving your time, energy and enthusiasm 🌟
