Who this task will support
FoodCycle Broxtowe
We turn food that would otherwise be wasted into healthy, nutritious three course meals that are offered to the community completely for free every week. No booking needed, no questions asked, just turn up on the day and enjoy a free meal with your community, whilst also having a great environmental benefit by saving food from going into landfill. We aim to reduce food waste, food poverty and social isolation and loneliness, whilst bringing communities together and helping mental health.

Please note that this community mission has been cancelled.

FoodCycle host regular opportunities for local people to have a free meal made from leftover supermarket stock which would otherwise go to landfill. As the meal project is just getting up and running in Broxtowe, they've asked us for a hand with getting leaflets through doors in the local area. FoodCycle are also looking for volunteers to help cook and serve the meals so letting local people know about it will hopefully encourage more people to get involved with supporting their neighbours.

Our meeting point is TBC but it will be in the Broxtowe/Aspley area of Nottingham.

πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸƒ You can walk or jog between doors.

πŸ‘₯ We'll work in small teams to cover the area.


πŸ“ Meet outside Boots.

⏰ We'll meet at 6:30pm and aim to be done by 7:30.

ℹ️ This is one of GoodGym Nottingham's first ever sessions! It's a great opportunity to meet other nice people and do a bit of good for the local area. Come along solo (everyone is in the same boat) or bring a pal along for some company.

πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ Up for leading a little 3km run round the area or a park beforehand? Drop a comment below.

❓ Got a question? Comment below or email Mark.

Due to the rain, that is not forecast to stop, we are going to cancel this task and hopefully reorganise later in the year. I'm not sure the leaflets would survive for long in this weather!
