We're beginning to get overwhelmed by the amount of food we can store and would like to open more days each week. To do this, we need to revamp our kitchen area so that we can store more food.
We opened the Malvern Link Community Fridge in February this year. Since then we have seen the need increase significantly. We're currently in the process of collecting food from a wider group of supermarkets - but to do this we need to revamp our kitchen area. The kitchen was installed in the 1980s and is a hotchpotch of different cabinets with limited storage. We'd like to redo the kitchen and create a better entrance area for people accessing the Community Fridge. We'd also like to offer more cooking demonstrations and workshops and a new kitchen space would allow us to do this. We also need to refurbish our toilet facilities.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
At the moment we have a queue every Monday extending out onto the road with people waiting to access the fridge - we are also having to turn down food as we can't store it properly. A new kitchen and entrance area would mean that we could serve more people, more quickly - and increased storage and fridge space would mean that we could open on more days than we currently do.
Steps to get it done:
The Community Fridge stops a significant amount of food going to landfill and helps alleviate food poverty in Malvern Link.
