FOOD4HEROES CIO
We offer healthy, nutritious food to those in food poverty. We are centred in Northamptonshire but can operate nationally rather than locally. Our food is distributed via foodbanks and other charitable organisations. Since 2020, we have run an annual Christmas Meal Appeal to provide an individual festive meal for those in need.
