Alcester Community Fridge- July 2022

Let’s tackle food waste together!

The second Community Fridge was launched on 25 July 2022 at Alcester Baptist Church with the support of environmental charity Hubbub UK, and Alcester Town Council.

Food Waste is a big issue in the UK. The average household throws away £700 worth of food every year! Most of this food waste is avoidable and could have been eaten had it been better managed.

This new ‘fridge’ is located in the grounds of the Baptist church and is open to everyone, whilst the first one is run by St Nicholas Primary School, and is open to the school community only.

Volunteers collect the food from food outlets but also, if you have fresh food to spare, for example if you’re going away on holiday, it will be most welcome. It’s given out free of charge so pop along to the Community Fridge- see 2023 opening hours below

If you would like to know more, would like to volunteer to help or would like to make a donation, please email alcesterfridges@gmail.com. Up to date information will be posted regularly on:
