Breckland Council, GB installed four community fridges
Complete
Breckland Council has installed four community fridges throughout the region to reduce food waste. Local businesses can use these fridges to donate food that is past its sell-by date but not past its expiration date instead of discarding it. Residents can then access the food in these community fridges for free.

Project Succeeded
Since the first community fridge was installed by the Breckland Council in 2018 over 14,500kg of food has been collected by local businesses and distributed to residents instead of being discarded. The four community fridges have helped thousands of residents save money and access nutritious food.
