Report written by Michelle
Today five Goodgymers including one disguised in a North London football jersey helped with unloading food deliveries at South Ealing Community Food Cupboard.
We arrived in time for the second delivery of the day, with surplus food from supermarkets (eg Felix project) and everyone sprang into action. Unloading the crates full of fruit, vegetables and refrigerated stock.
I was the only first timer today so I got to watch as the team ferried crates back and forth from the delivery van, and the shelves were replenished. There was time to bag up some croissants and sausage rolls and then we left the regular volunteers to finish off preparing for when the doors open to the community at 1pm.
The SEC Food Cupboard is a community project set up to reduce waste. A group of local volunteers receives/collects surplus food from the supermarkets (Eg via Felix Project) and makes it available to anyone and everyone from the local area. The SEC Food Cupboard is available to all – its aim is purely to reduce waste and everyone can help with that. Always Free! The selection of food items each week will vary according to what is surplus food on that day.
