| FareShare |  |
CFINE’s operates a FareShare franchise whereby food producers' surplus foodstuffs are collected and distributed free to people experiencing food poverty, for example, facilities for people who are homeless, women who have experienced domestic abuse and in the regeneration areas.
Benefits of FareShare
- diverting produce that is perfectly good from landfill reaping significant environmental benefit
- affording the food industry the opportunity to exercise corporate responsibility and work in partnership with the voluntary sector;
improved diet for vulnerable/disadvantaged/excluded groups of people - saving beneficiary organisations money from their food budgets which can be diverted to other purposes
- saving individuals and families money
- Since the start of Fareshare Aberdeen in April 2007, 75 tonnes of produce has been delivered to our beneficiaries. Wiseman Dairies have been a great support by providing us with regular deliveries of milk and other dairy produce.
Volunteers Delivery Drivers Needed
FareShare projects throughout the UK are successful in part because they are attractive to volunteers – would you be interested in giving some time? Do you know someone who would?
The benefits of volunteering – confidence and self esteem, feel good factor, skill acquisition, reduced isolation/increased social contact etc.
