Stop food waste

How we can help

Let’s All Eat brings the community together, reduce social isolation, assist with weekly cooking plans, and reduce meal costs.

Let’s All Eat ensures that no one within the communities that we serve go hungry through our emergency food referral process. We also offer volunteering opportunities, contact us to find out more.

Who we are

Let’s All Eat is a community interest company that was founded in July 2015 in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.

Our goal is to use surplus food from supermarkets to create social enterprise meals within the communities that we serve. We are committed to supporting the reduction of food waste and ensuring food sustainability.

Through the food pantries that Let’s All Eat runs, people are able to access affordable healthy food which reduces landfill whilst enabling money to stretch further.

What we’ve achieved so far…

St John’s Methodist Church: 5,801 people supported
Huthwaite Methodist Church: 3,904 people supported
Lifespring Centre & Oasis Cafe: 7,888 people supported
King Street: 2,709 people supported

Numbers reflect the people Let’s All Eat has support since it began. Note that some recipients pay, whilst others receive the food parcels for free.

We served an average of 60 two-course meals a week between July 2015 and March 2020.
We’ve distributed 28,927 emergency food parcels between 23rd of March 2020 and 30th of August 2024.
We serve around 40 FREE hot meals a week at Lifespring Church in Ollerton through our Tuesday night food club.
For the past few years, we have ensured almost 500 people in the Ollerton and Ashfield communities have enjoyed a high-quality annual Christmas dinner.
