Litter Picks
Our team of locals and volunteers join together to make our neighbourhood a cleaner, greener place!
Our next litter pick will be in Autumn - the 12th of October! Keep an eye out on Facebook for any updates!
Too Good To Waste Pop-up Shops:
A core part of our Foodshare Scheme is to make food go further! As you may know, we run a variety of food-related services which rely on surplus donations from large supermarkets. This food would have been thrown in the bin! Instead, we use this food (still good to eat!) for The Social Supermarket, Emergency Food Parcels, The Chatty Cafe & Youth Community Fridge. If we still have excess food, it goes to our Too good to waste Pop-up Shop for just £1!
These are announced as and when on our Facebook pages!
Other Pop Up Shops/Carboot Sales:
Amongst the latest in our themed Pop up Shops, we recently hosted a new ‘Little One’s Pop-up Shop’. As many of you know, we receive lots of surplus donations that would otherwise go to landfill. In the instances where we are fortunate enough to have an abundance of baby & children’s products such as clothing, accessories, toys etc., we host our pop up stall at The Social Action Hub where brand new products are yours for the taking for charity shop prices or a donation of your choosing (depending on the event).
To find out when our next pop-up shop will be, join our Team Foodshare Facebook Group for updates :)
Markets:
Our latest market was our 2024 Christmas Market - The 30th of November 2024, where we held a festive Christmas Market and invited local businesses and stalls to sell products perfect for Christmas Gifts. We also had a stall showcasing our Revive Products from our Online Charity Shop! These are products that are saved from going to landfill and are as cheap as chips, and less than half of their retail price.
We raised more than £400 on this event, thanks to our amazing community! Thank you to everyone who came and contributed to our community:). Hopefully we can match or beat this in this year's Christmas festivities!
Look out for our next market which is our Summer Family Fiesta on the 28th of June!
