Do you care about doing something worthwhile with your working day? Are you passionate about supporting people at work and beyond? At FareShare South West, you can make a real difference to the one million people in the south west who are going hungry.

It’s very rewarding and impactful to work here, the sense of social positivity and giving to the community in ways that I never thought would be possible.

FareShare South West joins the dots between food waste and hunger, empowering communities to turn an environmental problem into lasting social good. We rescue tonnes of quality surplus food from the industry and share it with charities and schools to bring health, dignity and routes out of poverty for people across the south west. Our supportive volunteering and employability programmes offer local people the opportunity to thrive.

About FareShare South West

FareShare South West is an independent local charity, working in partnership with FareShare UK. By being part of the national FareShare network, we can help rescue more food. By being small and independent, we can remain close to our local partners and people, and continuously adapt to meet the needs of local communities. The member charities we share food with transform lives, using food to connect people with other support and routes out of poverty, including children and families, people on low incomes, homeless people, refugees, domestic abuse survivors, people in recovery, older people and many others. 

“I started as a volunteer. I like giving something back. It’s something really meaningful and purposeful.”
