About Us

Our mission - Using surplus food to support & educate people

Food for Families was established in early 2023 to support families who, although often working, are struggling to provide healthy food for the people they love. Each week with the help of a great team of volunteers, we cook a fresh nutritious one pot take-away’ meal for our families, which they collect discreetly from school pick-up points when they collect their children. We are currently producing 150 meals a week, supporting 35 local families and the really great thing is that by collecting and using perfectly fresh supermarket ’waste’ food, in as many ways as we can, we are tackling food waste as well as helping to bridge the poverty gap.

Become One Of Our Families

Food For Families is a really simple concept.  Our team of cooks make a family meal, each Monday.  We cook it, you collect it, and your family eats it!  For one day a week, you don’t have to worry about how much money you have, what is left in the fridge after the weekend to cook, or whether you have enough money to switch the oven on.

Do you live in West Vale, Elland, Greetland, Bowling Green or Holywell Green?
Do your children go to West Vale Academy, Greetland Academy, Bowling Green Academy, Holywell Green Primary School, Old Earth School or Elland C of E School?
Are you struggling a little bit with all the price rises?
Would you like a FREE family meal?

If you answered YES to these questions YOU QUALIFY!
