Welcome to the first episode of Food Stories, a podcast from FareShare Greater Manchester. In this episode we are sharing our story – who we are and what we do.
Last year, FareShare Greater Manchester rescued almost 2,000 tonnes of good-to-eat surplus food from going to waste. That food was redistributed to more than 300
charities and community groups across Greater Manchester and in real terms equated to 4.6 million meals.
We would not be able to do the work we do without our fantastic volunteers who last year donated over 21,000 hours of their time to our operation.
In this episode we share a bit about what we do at our warehouse on New Smithfield Market in Openshaw and give a little insight into how we get that much needed food out into the community.
