Reducing food waste.
The Dereham Community Fridge was launched in April 2018 as a practical way to save perfectly good food from ending up in the bin! Fresh produce, surplus items, longlife products past their best before but still absolutely fine to eat... there's all sorts there, and no two days are the same! Any and all are welcome to come and take things they can make use of. Click here to learn more.
