This is an organisiation that collects and distributes food that would otherwise go to waste. Please read the letter below to find out all about it!
Dear Parents,
It is with great pleasure that I announce to you a new partnership with your school and The Felix Project.
What is The Felix Project?
The Felix Project is a food redistribution charity. We collect food that would otherwise go to waste, but is perfectly fine to eat, and distribute it to schools and charities across London.
What is the schools programme?
The Felix Project Schools Programme is a programme through which schools across the country can contribute to reducing food waste and all the associated consequences, for example the emissions of CO2 and methane. We will work with your school to develop awareness and skills around the issue of food waste and we will take practical action against it. Together we will be making a difference!
A weekly delivery of food
We will receive a delivery of produce from The Felix Project every week that will be made available to you on a ‘market stall’ every Friday afternoon at 2.30pm. Just by using this food and averting it going to landfill, you will be preventing the same amount of environmental damage as a car driving around the globe twice every year!
Get involved
The Felix Project are always looking for volunteers to help them drive their vans, go out as a co-driver (no need for a driving licence) or sort food at the warehouse and keep it clean and organised. If you are interested please visit our website and register!

We hope you are as excited as us about this new partnership and hope to see you at the market stall soon!
Thank you for your support.
