Our History & Mission
Let’s All Eat was established in July 2015 in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.
At the core of Let’s All Eat is a team of dedicated volunteers who are committed to supporting the company’s fundamental objectives. These objectives include providing opportunities for community catering, social eating, and access to affordable food. They also aim to provide a range of training opportunities to enable personal development that can improve employability. In addition, they strive to develop services identified by the community for the community.
Through these objectives, Let’s All Eat can bring the community together, reduce social isolation, assist with weekly cooking plans, and reduce meal costs. There is also a pay-it-forward function when purchasing a meal to support people within the community, who can access food for free if required.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Let’s All Eat received several thousand food parcel referrals from professionals and became a lifeline for thousands of people within the Ashfield area. Let’s All Eat delivered food, kindness, and care, as well as doing welfare checks. They worked closely with other local organisations to collect food donations, distribute them fairly, and keep people as safe as possible during the highly challenging pandemic period.
Let’s All Eat remains committed to its mission of promoting locality and a fair approach to food distribution and sustainability within the communities they serve.
