£10.34 gives a daily meal for Londoner in need

600 local community organisations are on our waiting list desperately needing our food. Your monthly donation helps us meet the increasing demand for our free food supply in London.

“ Life is getting very expensive. I can’t afford all the bills. Without this service, we’d be eating food from the rubbish bins. ”

Mona, 66, West London

“ We would see a lot more hungry children if food from Felix stopped ”

Tam, Haringey Play Association

“ Without the surplus food from the Felix Project, we would not be able to run our community pantry service, which provides heavily discounted weekly shops to help people save money on groceries. The need for this service is especially great during the current cost of living crisis ”

Ellie Ward , Peabody Pantry, Chingford

“ It’s extremely moving to see a line of people down the street waiting for your arrival. The food is quite extraordinary - stuff I hanker for when I go to the supermarket. Really exceptional fish and extraordinary cuts of meat. ”

Julia, Felix volunteer

“ There’s no reason for children to be starving or going hungry with the amount of surplus food that’s out there. ”

Michelle Dornelly , Children with Voices in Hackney

tackling a real crisis

Right now, there are close to 600 charities on our waiting list for food and over 1000 we already supply who need more food.

Food prices have hit levels not seen since the 1970s. Gas, electricity and other bills have gone up. The poor are being hit the hardest.

This is a crisis.

We have ambitious plans to keep leading the fight against hunger in London and we would love to count on your support.


MEET THE FELIX FAMILY

The Felix Project started with one woman and a van back in 2016 in West London, as a legacy to the memory of a young boy called Felix.

We are now London's leading charity working to fight hunger and food waste, helping over half a million Londoners with our deliveries to food banks, shelters, community kitchens and schools across the capital.

Thanks to thousands of generous Londoners supporting us, we can deliver over 30 million meals for people in need of food.

But we need to do more - the UK's hunger crisis is growing rapidly and we need to grow too. Over the next 5 years, we want to deliver more than twice what we do now, to help more people than ever.

We are only missing you.


Where your donation goes

79p in every £1 is spent directly on our mission to rescue and deliver surplus food for people in need. We run a huge logistics operation spanning four warehouses, one kitchen, one green scheme and hundreds of vans. Over 800 amazing volunteers work tirelessly 6 days a week to fight hunger and food waste, which keeps the running of Felix as efficient as possible.
