After years of campaigning from FareShare and the Felix Project, the Government will be committing £15m towards food surplus redistribution, getting good-to-eat surplus food from our farms to people who need it instead of letting it go to waste.

The announcement was made by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at the National Farmers Union (NFU) Conference in February, as part of a commitment to improving food security in the UK. At a time when 13 million people in the UK are facing food insecurity, this funding has the potential to make an enormous difference to people and communities across the country. We’re pleased to be working with the government and across the charity sector to enable to ensure that this funding will deliver a rapid and effective impact.
