Welcome to Love Food Share Food. We fundraise for local organisations in their work to fight food poverty, minimise food waste and support vulnerable members of our community. According to the Food Foundation, 15% of UK households were living in food insecurity as of  January 2024. Our goal is to support our chosen beneficiaries to ensure that our emergency food providers can continue their vital work.

  • Table Cards

    The simplest and most effective way for restaurants to participate. Add an optional £1 donation to diners' bills. This small addition goes a long way in supporting our cause.

  • Donate Surplus Food

    If you have surplus food and want to ensure it reaches those in need, please reach out to us at lovefoodsharefood@gmail.com. We're committed to facilitating the redistribution of surplus food in partnership with Fareshare Sussex & Surrey and Brighton Food Bank to help combat hunger in our community.

We believe that everyone deserves access to affordable, nutritious, good quality food. You can help organisations working toward this goal by donating directly through Love Food Share Food, or by participating in our table card Initiative by dining at one of our partner restaurants.
