Food & Beverages - Paisley, Scotland, United Kingdom
Our aims are to eliminate food waste, relieve food poverty and in doing so help save our environment.Eat UP's purpose is to provide a reliable and sustainable link between sources of surplus food and community organisations that provide support to those in need. We regularly deliver high quality, nourishing food to organisations that provide meals for vulnerable people including soup kitchens, family support groups, community resource centres and foodbanks. We make it much simpler for our food donor businesses to donate their surplus food to those in need, reduce their waste collection costs and offset greenhouse gases. We never charge businesses who donate or those organisations we supply food to for any of the services we provide. In Eat UP's first 10 months, we collected donations from two stores of one retail chain, providing over 4,200 meals to those in need. Now, within our first year as a registered charity (since July 2018), we have more than doubled this result. We now collect surplus food donations from five major retailers and a growing number of local independent outlets. All of this has been achieved with zero funding, just the dedication and good will of our community volunteers.
