Company Description
FEED US UP is a UK-based Community Interest Company (CIC) that bridges the gap between organisations with surplus resources and communities with real needs.
Working alongside businesses, charities, and trusted local partners, we transform surplus resources into lasting social impact, reducing waste, promoting sustainability, and strengthening communities.
In the UK, we partner with food redistribution networks and community organisations to help surplus food reach vulnerable older people and individuals experiencing isolation. Internationally, including in Haiti, we work alongside churches and local organisations to equip schools, healthcare facilities, and communities with practical resources that support long-term development.
Our mission is simple: Feeding Growth. Sparking Change. Strengthening Communities.
