West Sussex County Council and Biffa are partnering with UKHarvest to host a community food hub once a month where, for a suggested small donation, people will be able to pick up a wide selection of surplus foods which would have otherwise ended up as waste from suppliers.

What is a community food hub?

Help to fight food waste at our community food hub.

Community food hubs are open to all residents, you do not need a referral (that some food banks require) and are designed to help rescue food from suppliers that would otherwise have gone to waste.

Residents can access affordable food, learn low-cost cooking and find support on a range of social issues.

What skills do I need?

How can you help?

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers who can help to unload, and setup food on tables, engage with attendees in a polite and positive manner, assisting with sharing of the rescued food and helping with packing up. Full training will be provided.

What skills do I need?

Some lifting may be involved. Trolley is available. Ability to engage with people in a friendly positive way.
