COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS: BRING-A-BAG
To keep our volunteers and visitors safe, we currently hand out pre-bagged selections of food as opposed to our usual help-yourself set up.
Bring a clean bag-for-life with you and we will swap it for a bag-for-life filled with fresh food!
Please queue sensibly outside leaving a 2m gap between you and the person ahead.
YOUR CHESHAM COMMUNITY FRIDGE
The Chesham Community Fridge project is run under the auspices of Kings Church Chesham in conjunction with the Hubbub Foundation.
It is a non-profit charity project that aims to redistribute surplus food to the general community that would otherwise become food waste. It aims to relieve pressures on household food budgets; provide a community area that fosters sharing and collaboration; reduce local business food waste; and raise public awareness around this food issue.

why we're here
A COMMUNITY FRIDGE IS A SIMPLE WAY OF ENABLING PEOPLE TO SHARE GOOD FOOD THAT WOULD OTHERWISE GO TO WASTE.
The average UK family wastes £810 a year by throwing away food and drink which could have been consumed. 61% of the food wasted in the UK (4.1 million tonnes) is avoidable and could be eaten if creative ways of sharing it are found. And a community fridge is one such way!
