FoodCycle

FoodCycle is a charitable organization based in the United Kingdom that uses surplus food donated by supermarkets, shops and food banks to create vegetarian meals served at "free community restaurants".

FoodCycle has a head office in London, with operations in locations across England and Wales.

History
In September 2008, Canadian Kelvin Cheung founded FoodCycle. He started the organization after hearing about the US on-campus student service program, Campus Kitchen, where students use on-campus kitchen space and donated food from their cafeterias to prepare meals for their communities. FoodCycle's pilot hubs were at the Imperial College London and the London School of Economics.
