The food is good quality food that can no longer be sold for a variety of reasons, such as damaged packaging or a short-shelf life. This doesn’t have an impact on the standard or safety of the food items available. Food available often includes bread, eggs and fresh fruit. It will always be within its use by date and is perfectly good to eat.
Once you’re signed up, FareShare Go will match you with your local store or restaurant where you can collect food every week. Using our app, you will receive a notification on your chosen collection day to let you know what food is available. Once you've accepted your food offer, you simply pop into store and pick up the food from a friendly member of staff.
The FareShare Go service gives charities and community groups access to free,
quality and good to eat surplus food from some of the UK's biggest household names.

However, don't worry, we can help you reach these standards if you are not quite there yet.
