Big Lunch Food Invention Challenge

Just like our classic challenge, your team will create delicious meals from surplus food. But this time, after all your hard work in the kitchen, you’ll get to sit down and enjoy the meal together. It’s the perfect way to bond with colleagues, give back, and experience the joy of sharing great food.

Testimonials

“If you’re a company looking for a meaningful way to give back, and bond as a team, then look no further. You’ll leave feeling accomplished and full of innovative ideas to use up fruit and veg that would otherwise have gone to waste.”
Rude Health

“When I joined the volunteering committee at Wild, I was excited to get Wild involved in the project. Not only does FoodCycle tackle food poverty and loneliness, it also tackles mass consumer food waste, which aligns with Wild’s sustainability goals.”
Wild Cosmetics

“Volunteers really enjoyed getting creative, using fresh surplus food to make nutritious meals for those who may be lonely and isolated, on low incomes or homeless whilst also thinking about their own food habits and practices. Huge thank you to the FoodCycle Team for providing us with such fun and informative volunteering days”
Wellcome Trust
