how we do it
From our warehouse in Newport, we receive articulated lorries of food/supplies which we then prepare and package ready to be delivered to our partner organisations.
We receive 100's of tonnes of surplus products each year from multi national suppliers / manufacturers / retailers plus we distribute donations from local businesses and members of the public. Through the redistribution of surplus or unwanted products the project is a positive alternative to landfill and external recycling by helping national companies/ public reduce their negative environmental impact.
​
Jesus Cares is a Big Lottery Funded project, and this support has enabled us to expand our work throughout South Wales.
