Thursday is Yvonne’s favourite day of the week. It’s a chance for her family to enjoy a healthy meal, try something new and spend time with other families at school. Plus it's one night where she doesn't need to cook.

Future you could have a medal around your neck. 👀🏅 You just need to give them something to train for.

There’s more than one way to make a difference.  This International Day of Charity, we want to celebrate all the different ways people support FoodCycle.

Too early to mention Christmas? We don’t think so...  If you’re already thinking about festive plans, we’ve got something a little different to add to your calendar.  This December, join Team FoodCycle for Santa in the City, a brilliantly festive run through London.

Good food tastes even better when it’s shared. 💚 That’s something we have in common with our brilliant partners at Wagamama. This week, wagamama chefs joined our volunteers at FoodCycle Camden, bringing their skills to the kitchen and cooking up some wagamama classics for our guests to enjoy.

58,000 steps, three peaks and one incredible achievement! 👏⛰️ Huge congratulations to Szymon, who completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks in an amazing 11 hours and 45 minutes, beating his 12-hour target and raising funds for FoodCycle along the way.

Been this 🤏🏽 close to volunteering with us but haven't quite hit that sign-up button yet?  Perhaps our guests can convince you. We asked them about the difference FoodCycle makes to their lives, and their answers show just how much can come from a few hours of someone's time.

11 spots. 21.77km. One brilliant challenge. 🏃💚 Our Meal to Meal Railway Run is coming to Bristol and Bath on Saturday 17th October!

You'd expect the food to be the most important part. But ask any volunteer what keeps them coming back, and they'll probably tell you it's the conversations. The familiar faces. The feeling of walking into a room where everyone belongs.

Missed out on a place in the London Marathon ballot? There's still time to be part of the 2027 London Marathon.

Summer plans don't have to involve airports and festivals. ☀️💚 Sometimes the best afternoons are spent around a kitchen, laughing with people you've only just met, turning surplus ingredients into something delicious and watching a room fill with smiles.

So... the London Marathon ballot results are out. For some people, it's the email they've been hoping for. For many others, it's not the news they wanted. If your ballot place didn't come through this time, don't put those running shoes away just yet.

On Friday 5th June we held another volunteer celebration event, this time it was for volunteers and Project Leaders from our East, Central, South West and Wales community meals.

It's Carers Week 💙 Caring for someone you love is one of the most giving things a person can do, and one of the loneliest.

It's launch day! 🌍 We’re proud to be partnering with Big Give for this year’s Earth Raise campaign. From today to 29th April, every donation to FoodCycle through BigGive.org will be doubled, helping us maximise our impact.

Something exciting is coming… We’re proud to be partnering with Big Give this April for their Earth Raise campaign, supporting projects that make a positive impact on the environment.

We often share the numbers. Meals served, food saved, volunteers involved. But the real impact of FoodCycle is much harder to measure.

The TCS London Marathon takes place on Sunday 26th April, and we have some amazing runners taking part for FoodCycle.

This B Corp Month, we’re celebrating partners like Pip & Nut who believe that how food is made, and how it’s shared really matters.

Easter is almost here, and the Easter bunny is a big fan of carrots, are you? Here's a carrot recipe you might not have tried before - Persian Carrot Jam

Good luck to everyone taking on the Leeds Loop tomorrow 💚 Whether you’re running, walking or taking it at your own pace, every step you take between Harehills and Seacroft is helping to support FoodCycle’s work in the community.

Our 2025 Social Impact Report is here and we are SO proud to share it with you. This year, together, we served a record 177,062 community meals. That's 177,162 moments of warmth, friendship and nourishment made possible by the most incredible volunteers, supporters and partners.

A quote from one of our guests in our latest survey 🤗 This Food Waste Action Week, we’re celebrating the volunteers, partners and supporters who help turn surplus food into shared meals across the UK.

Good food should never go to waste. Last year, FoodCycle volunteers saved 349 tonnes of surplus food. Instead of ending up in landfill, those ingredients were turned into 177,062 community meals shared around tables across the UK.

Fancy a run through Manchester for a good cause? 🏃‍♀️ Take on the Manchester Half Marathon with Team FoodCycle and turn your miles into something meaningful. Every step helps us bring people together over good food and great conversation in communities across the UK.

Imagine running 13.1 miles through some of London’s most beautiful and iconic spaces. The Royal Parks Half Marathon on 11th October takes you through Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park and St James’s Park, with the route weaving past world-famous landmarks including Buckingham Palace & Trafalgar Square

This Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating the meals we love the most. 💘 The ones that are comforting, generous and made to be shared.

Next Tuesday is Pancake Day.  It's an opportunity to use up leftover ingredients, which is something we can get on board with! Sweet or savoury, folded or piled high, Pancake Day is the perfect excuse to get creative in the kitchen. Think soft pancakes, leftover fruit and a drizzle of honey.

That’s what one of our guests shared with us recently, and it perfectly captures what FoodCycle community meals are all about. A chance to connect, share stories and enjoy good food together.

Thinking ahead to your goals for 2026? Why not make one of them a run that gives something back? The Great Birmingham Run 10K is a brilliant challenge, whether you’re a regular runner or lacing up your trainers for the first time.
