We have three simple ways for you to help.
The Big Give is doubling all donations for one week only between Tuesday, November 28th, and Tuesday, December 5th. Or, if you’d rather donate your time, you can join us at a Tesco near you between Thursday 30th November, and Saturday 2nd December 2023.
Last year we raised £14,825 through the Big Give – you came together to help us provide 64,456 meals. You also donated an incredible 15 tonnes of food, packed up by our volunteers at our Tesco food drive.

Why your support matters
We work with more than 150 charities and community groups across the region, supporting those who need food most across Sussex & Surrey. Here are a couple who benefit from our work:
Henfield Haven does valuable work in the community providing low-cost meals and dementia support. They’ve been receiving food from us since 2015. Last winter we delivered 2.9 tonnes of food to Henfield to help stock their community cafe and feed their dementia day centre attendees.
Littlehampton Community Fridge’s Second Chance Cafe work in West Sussex providing a pay as you feel cafe. Providing a space for the community to enjoy a meal together at a price which is affordable for everyone.
