Thank you for supporting The Felix Project's group volunteering scheme, we have a suggested amount of £50 per person for this which helps cover the administration costs of facilitating groups.
Sadly our operation can be detrimentally impacted by drop outs, companies sending less volunteers than they booked for and in some cases, total cancellation of attendance, so we now have a cancelation policy (which you can view on our website). For every hour a volunteer is with us, the charity can deliver circa 200 meals to the community, when we have less people than expected in the depots
With a little help from our friends...
The Felix Project would like to see a new Sustainable Farming Incentive or SFI, which would compensate farmers’ for giving edible surplus to the redistribution sector.
