Food Sharers and Swap Shop

Really busy Food Sharers, Swap Shop and more at Glamis Hall’s Community Room 2-6 this afternoon!

Food Sharers*, our new food reuse project offered surplus food from other food sharers including Redeem Funds and Glamis Hall. Wellingborough Swap Shop, a bring and buy sale where you can swap or give a small donation for all sorts of pre-loved items. Tuesday Tidy Ups with Wellie Wombles were there for all of your litter picking equipment and bags. We even made visitors a free coffee or tea at our Fairtrade Café, lots of fun for all, good news is we’re back next week!

New Food Sharers

Love food, hate waste, be a Food Sharer!

Food Sharers is a new sharing community from Wellingborough Eco Group that are focused on saving good food from going in the bin, and sharing food with people that want it. We are a food reuse project that is open to anyone, and something that works for all ‘Food Sharers’ in the town that mutually benefits all organisations; and of course, benefitting people and planet too.

We share food on Tuesday afternoons in Glamis Hall’s Community Room between 2:00 and 6:00, with surplus food from Food Sharers, retailers, Redeem Funds and Glamis Hall. We have lots of fresh fruit and veg, bread and other treats plus, the kettle’s on too if you fancy a coffee or tea! Your donations will also be shared with sharers!

Food Sharers will evolve into a community fridge and food reuse café and it will include a food buying club for people to buy food in bulk from wholesalers. Wellingborough Eco Group and ‘Food Sharers’ are not, nor will ever be a food bank. Food Sharers is simply a food reuse project open to everyone.

Be a Food Sharer, share on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/foodsharer and at Glamis Hall’s Community Room, Tuesdays 2-6. Love food, hate waste, be a Food Sharer!
