Tesco are giving away surplus food
CHARITIES and community groups across Bradford are being invited to receive free surplus food from Tesco this summer.
The supermarket donates thousands of meals to good causes each week as part of its Community Food Connection scheme, run in conjunction with food charity FareShare.
Community Food Connection enables 7,000 charities and community groups to pick up free food from Tesco, but many school-operated groups take a break during the summer holidays, meaning food that would normally be donated could go to waste.
Alec Brown, of Tesco, said: “We are encouraging local groups to get in touch with FareShare to find out if our surplus food could support their work.”
