We have partnered up with Too Good To Go, who aim to tackle food waste across the world by encouraging the sale of surplus food for a cheaper price. We encourage Aldgate’s community to get involved and start saving food, and we encourage local food businesses to register and reduce the food waste in Aldgate!

What is Too Good To Go?

  • A social impact company fighting food waste
  • The world’s largest business-to-consumer app for surplus food
  • The app has over 5 million UK users
  • They have saved  over 75 million meals across 15 countries – and counting!

More than 1/3 of food is wasted!

As a customer, how does it work?

  • Every day, delicious, fresh food goes to waste at cafes, restaurants, hotels, shops and manufacturers – just because it hasn’t sold in time.
  • The Too Good To Go app lets you buy and collect this food – at a great price – so it gets eaten instead of wasted.
  • You won’t know exactly what’s in your order until you pick it up – it’s all part of the surprise.
