Volunteer Driver

FareShare Midlands is the region’s largest food redistribution charity, tackling food inequality and transforming lives. In partnership with FareShare UK, we rescue good-quality surplus food and redistribute it to over 800 local charities and community organisations, reaching 83,000 people weekly. Beyond fighting hunger, we empower individuals through education, training and volunteering, helping over 730 people to date build brighter, more secure futures. Together, we’re fighting hunger, reducing food waste and creating opportunities across the Midlands:

• Our Mission is to maximise the social value of surplus food. 
• Our Vision is a Midlands region where no-one goes hungry when there is food being wasted, no child goes to school on an empty stomach, and where vulnerable people are supported to join​ or re-join the workforce. 
• Our Values are Passion, Ambition, Respect, Collaboration and Accountability – they run through everything we do and provide a clear framework for how we approach our work.
