About us
Who we are
City Harvest is London’s first ‘last-mile’ food redistribution charity!
While thousands of Londoners go hungry every day, perfectly good food is going to waste. City Harvest rescues surplus food that would otherwise go to landfill, and then our fleet of refridgerated vans roll through the streets of London to those in need!
Distributing over 200,000 meals a week to over 350 London community projects, including homeless shelters, soup kitchens, children’s programmes, mental health support schemes, and refuges. Every day starts the same; working out where the need is greatest, and how we can best help.
Since we begun in 2014 we have rescued over 8,000 tonnes of surplus food, thus preventing 32,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere. All by simply fulfilling the original destiny of produce, to be eaten rather than wasted!
