This caught my attention. Unfortunately only in central at the moment.

We rescue good, surplus food from the food industry that cannot be sold and would otherwise go to waste.

We then sort and then deliver this food to almost 1000 front-line charities, primary schools and holiday programmes in London.

Felix's green scheme is a simple A to B collection and delivery service, collecting end-of-day food from cafes, restaurants and delis and then delivering it for Londoners in need.

Volunteers complete pre-determined routes which collect from various food suppliers and then deliver this food immediately to charities in the local area.

The operation is completely green - we have a fleet of fully electric vans volunteers use on the driving routes, as well as walking and cycling routes where volunteers use a Felix courier bag to distribute food from A to B - either on foot or by bicycle.

A few people in work are supporting this and a friend's worked for them for years - it's a good initiative.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
