Every café, bakery and supermarket ends the day with food that won't be sold. Rather than throwing it away, you can pass it to The Stranger Foundation, and we will make sure it reaches someone who needs it.
Less waste. Give us what you throw away and what you pay to dispose of.
A real local impact. Your food reaches people in your own neighbourhood.
No cost and little effort. We collect from you, and there's nothing to buy, sign up for or pay.
Get in contact with us through our email address available at the bottom of every page.
We agree a collection time that fits your day.
We collect the food, and you carry on with your day.
We receive sandwiches, prepared items, baked goods and pastries from bakery-cafés and prepared consumables from Supermarkets.
Our Award Scheme
We give The Stranger Foundation award to donating partners and distributing charities in recognition of their service to the community.
