Fundraise for FoodCycle

Interested in fundraising for FoodCycle? That’s fantastic!

Without incredible fundraisers like you we wouldn’t be able to provide vulnerable and lonely people with tasty, nutritious food and good conversation. The money you raise enables us to tackle food waste and food poverty across the country. By raising funds for FoodCycle you’ll help us turn even more surplus food into meals for people struggling to get by.

From bike rides and bake sales to sponsoring your boss to make the tea, there’s no end to the ways in which you can fundraise for FoodCycle!

There are lots of ways you can support us…

Donating in memory of someone is a wonderful way to pay tribute to their life whilst benefitting others. You can donate online or you may want to arrange an online collection. You can set up an online collection page to donate to FoodCycle in someone’s memory with Just Giving.

Create a lasting legacy to continue your passion for community and the environment by making a gift in your Will. We suggest you seek legal advice from a solicitor or member of the Institute of Profession Will Writers when drawing up or making amendments to an existing Will.
