This week Welshpool Rotary welcomed Agatha Titley, Community Engagement Officer at Welshpool Town Council, who told members about the latest community initiative – the Welshpool Community Fridge!
Agi, explained that the initiative has been created primarily to cut the amount of local food-waste by sharing it with any local residents that can make use of it. Rather than letting perfectly good and edible food be used instead of it going daily to land-fill - just because of a date on it!
Supplied by local food-based businesses, organisations and residents, the ‘fridge’ redistributes the excess food to those who can make use of it. Users visit the Community Fridge based in the Town Hall and they just help themselves. No means testing or ID required.
