Acton Gardens Community Fridge – Volunteering Opportunity

The Acton Gardens Community Fridge is an initiative aiming to tackle food waste and food poverty.

​Acton Gardens Community, in Partnership with the Felix Project, receive food donations once a week on Tuesdays. Our team of volunteers then prepare food bags which are collected by residents in and around Acton Gardens. ​Food waste is a big issue in the UK.

The average household throws away £470 worth of food every year and at the same time 4 million people in the UK are living in food poverty. Most food waste in the UK (4.1 million tonnes or 61%) is avoidable and could have been eaten had it been better managed.  

​We welcome food donations, so if you want to help please drop your donation Monday to Friday between 10am and 3pm at the community centre.​ Please note we only accept non-perishable items.​If you would like to volunteer, please email volunteer@actongardens.community or call us on 020 8075 5240.
