With Olio’s Food Waste Heroes Programme, you can…

Access hyper-local volunteers for instant, hyper-local impact

Our 100,000+ food-safety trained volunteers collect and share food with families nearby in as little as 30 minutes

Be a force for good in your local community

Thanks to your spare food, people nearby can eat dinner that day (rather than going without)

Where a charity can collect your surplus food, it comes first. Our Food Waste Heroes collect what’s left, or what charities can’t take, like same-day use-by food.

Delight (and retain) your employees  

Your team will feel amazing knowing they’re doing their bit to support people struggling
