Introducing FoodCycle Pompey

Uniting the community so no good food goes to waste

FoodCycle Pompey is a new project based at the John Pounds Centre to bring the community together whilst addressing issues of food poverty and food waste. 

FoodCycle is a national organisation running volunteer-powered community projects across the UK – working to reduce food poverty and social isolation by serving tasty, nutritious meals to vulnerable groups. To find out more about who FoodCycle are, watch this short video.

The FoodCycle Pompey Team are currently looking to recruit volunteers into a number of 'Hub Leader' roles; session leaders, food collections and donor relations, fundraisers, community engagement and volunteer coordinators. 

Alternatively, if you aren't able to commit to offering your time regularly, you can sign up as a FoodCycler on an ad-hoc basis. 

There will be an information session for volunteers soon, so keep your eyes and ears open for further information! Please share the story of FoodCycle with family, friends and colleagues! 

The FoodCycle Pompey Team think this is an exciting opportunity for the city and can't wait to get started!
