AFFORDABLE FOOD PROGRAMME

Good food for your family, rescued from waste

At Devon and Cornwall Food Action, we believe no one should have to go hungry. We rescue good surplus food and share it as great-value food bundles across Devon and Cornwall. No referral needed.

What you get

What’s in a bundle?

  • Fresh fruit & vegetables – good, nutritious food for the whole family
  • Cupboard staples – things like pasta, rice, bread, tins, cereal, tea and coffee
  • A bag of frozen food & meals – easy, varied meals for the week
  • A box of pies/pasties
  • Even some treats! – crisps, cakes and the odd surprise

Contents may vary, dependent on availability. We sometimes have pet food too.

Every bundle is different – contents depend on the food we’ve rescued at the time.

Every bundle is worth several times what you pay

Why is there a charge?

We’re 100% volunteer-led, with no paid staff. The charge simply helps cover our overheads, so we can keep rescuing good food for local families.

Every bundle you buy saves you money on your shopping and keeps good food out of landfill.

How the programme works

Rescuing surplus food

Food producers and supermarkets give us good food they can’t sell in time. We collect it before it goes to waste.

Working with local partners

We team up with local organisations so the food we save reaches the people who can use it. It’s a real community effort.

Straight to you

Get food from our Plymouth Hub, a Pop-Up near you or the Callington Community Food Hub. No referral needed – everyone is welcome.

Together we can make a difference – one meal at a time

Save money on your shopping and help keep good food in use.
