“We\u2019ve been able to have a hot meal”<\/h3>\n \n \n
\n Olio has saved my family. As for most of us, things are really tight right now, and the wee bits we get off Olio have honestly been a lifeline for our family.\r\n\r\nThanks to the wonderful work of our local Food Waste Heroes, we\u2019ve been able to have a hot meal every night – even when we haven\u2019t had a penny to spend. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

“Meant so much to some of the poorer families that collect from me”<\/h3>\n \n \n
\n Last Christmas, I collected turkeys and other Christmas food from Iceland, and I just knew this meant so much to some of the poorer families that collect from me. I was so happy the food was really appreciated and the main thing was – it didn\u2019t go to waste. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
