What's happening

Yourcafe and Fill Bellies Not Bins are soon to become official student volunteering projects. 

What Yourcafe does do? 

Yourcafe redirects surplus food from supermarkets to provide a delicious 'pay as you feel' lunch each week at Tang Hall Community Centre. Any extra food is donated to schools and individuals around York. The café provides a place for the community to come together, make friends and tackle the issue of food waste on a local level.

On campus, we have run monthly food distributions on a 'pay what you feel' basis - keeping food from going to waste, feeding hungry students and providing a focus for positive action. 

Want to know more?

Join us at V Bar on Tuesday 26 November at 6pm or Wednesday 4 December at 6pm. Alternatively, if you can’t make these dates but would like more info, contact Nick Jones via email at nick.jones@york.ac.uk.
