Charnwood Community Fridge

Charnwood Community Fridge We are located at Shelthorpe Family Hub - Woodthorpe Road, Loughborough, LE11 2NF. https://sites.google.com/view/charnwoodcf

Our Community Fridge is a space where surplus food is shared for free, bringing people together to eat, connect, learn new skills and reduce food waste and saving the environment - our common home. It is set up, owned and managed by the Children & Family Wellbeing Service in Charnwood and run by a dedicate volunteer Team. It is stocked by food donations received from the local supermarkets, local gardeners, farms and shared by private households in Loughborough and surrounding areas.
