Its been 8 months since we took over BPK and its been a sharp learning curve and wild and exciting ride.
We have: worked with teenagers at two local festivals providing free vegetarian food to local people priced out of the other food at these events, delivered a month of cooking workshops to children and parents in a park, supported 150 cyclists on thier way to Paris Climate change conference; worked with Borough market to educate local people and raise funds for our cause; moved location to a derilict community estate to reach more people; and of course served a 4-5 course hot meal to many many local people in the Lambeth area, around 30 people a sitting.
Our mission to save good food from the bin has accelerated with us serving 9 meals in Dec and this being every weekend and sometimes on the same day. We are lucky to have a great team of part-time workers and volunteers to help us in the cause.
We hope that people will help us continue our work through supporting us so that we can pay for the bits and bobs we need like kitchen space and aprons to contiue saving good grub
