Give Us Your Surplus Food

We support frontline charities and community organisations across the Midlands, working hard to ensure local people in need receive nutritious food. 

Our Members include community pantries and cafes, schools, colleges and training centres, homeless and youth shelters, and drop-in centres. They work tirelessly to support vulnerable people in their local communities. Our Members turn our in-date surplus food into food parcels, affordable shopping and delicious meals for families and individuals struggling with food poverty. Collectively our food supports 60,000 people every single week.

Over 90% of our members agree they are able to access a wider variety and quantity of food through their membership with FareShare Midlands. 85% say they are able to provide their service users with more fruit and vegetables, and more than half say that without a FareShare Midlands membership it is likely they would have to close their services.
