What is a Community Fridge?
Community Fridges exist to reduce food waste and foster a spirit of sharing and mutual support within a community. They are often open more regularly than a food bank and offer a source of fresh good quality food surplus for everyone.

Community Fridges operate on a trust basis and are not means tested. They’re open to all and anyone can share or take food, including surplus from supermarkets, local food businesses, producers, households and gardens.
