Well done to everyone for the final FoodCycle of 2025 at Mitcham! A healthy turnout of 23 guests joined us for a truly festive send-off, enjoying a delicious meal of courgette & aubergine tempura to start, followed by a hearty Quorn roast Wellington with carrots, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and rich onion gravy. To finish, there were mince pies with ice cream which is the perfect sweet note to end the year on.
A brilliant way to close out 2025, full of good food, great teamwork, and community spirit. Thank you to everyone who’s volunteered, cooked, hosted, and supported throughout the year and see you in the new one!
Operating every Thursday evening at the Togetherness Community Centre in Mitcham, the project welcomes guests from all walks of life to share a hot meal and engage in friendly conversation in a warm, inclusive environment. The meals are prepared by dedicated volunteers using surplus food collected from local supermarkets and grocers, ensuring that perfectly edible food is diverted from landfill and put to good use. Volunteers take on various roles, including cooking, hosting, and food collection, all contributing to the creation of a welcoming space where guests can enjoy both nourishment and companionship. By fostering connections among community members and promoting sustainability, FoodCycle Mitcham not only provides immediate support to those facing hardship but also works towards building a more resilient and connected local community.
