We collect surplus food from a range of supermarkets, businesses and growers, re-distributing it to those that need it, all while ensuring as little food waste as possible.

About

Welcome to Hartlepool Food Network!

We collect fresh food and re-distribute it to people who are experiencing food poverty, through a network of volunteer drivers and agencies.

We also have a number of ‘community fridges’ located throughout the town to store food in which can be accessed by those that need it, so that food waste is kept to a minimum.

Since July 2017, we have collected more than £85,000 worth of surplus food, which has been shared with over 32,000 people!
