We are currently in the process of setting up two community fridges in Sherborne. One at St Paul’s Church in the East of the town and the other at the West End Hall in the West.
The community fridge idea was originally introduced by Hubbub which coordinates the world’s largest Community Fridge Network with over 150 running in the UK.
It is a space where everyone can share surplus food, including donations from local food businesses, producers, households and gardens.
The fridges differ from food banks in that they help to reduce food waste, offer fresh food and give the opportunity to possibly try something different.
We are now looking for volunteers to help with the running of the fridges, once set up.
If you have some spare time during the week and would like to get involved in some volunteering, then please contact Cllr Jane Carling, using the contact details in the flyer above for more information.
