About Us

Oxford Food Hub

Oxford Food Hub is at the centre of surplus food redistribution in Oxfordshire, providing food to over 250 charities and community groups. In 2025, we redistributed 641 tonnes of produce to local charities and community groups and with your help, we can keep providing this service without charge to suppliers and charities.

Our Vision:

To be the surplus food partner of choice for Oxfordshire food producers, distributors, retailers, and community groups. Sharing surplus, reducing waste.

Our mission is to:

  • Saving surplus food from producers and retailers, promoting food waste reduction, reducing carbon emissions, and protecting the environment.

The values central to our approach:

  • Inclusive
  • Nimble
  • Environmental
  • Efficient
  • Collaborative
  • Community-led

Objectives for the next 3 years:

  1. Increase the volume of surplus food collected and secure existing supply.
  2. Secure suitable premises to meet operational needs.
  3. Generate enough income to cover our current and future running costs.
  4. Build our capacity to respond to increased demand for our services.
  5. Expand and adapt the support we provide Oxfordshire’s Community Food Network and charities.
  6. Raise the profile of Oxford Food Hub and our work to reduce food waste and to support community food needs in Oxfordshire.

Our dedicated group of volunteers collect surplus food from wholesalers, supermarkets and other organisations and distribute this food to charities and community organisations. Everyone wins – we reduce food waste going to landfill and provide tasty fresh produce to those in need in Oxfordshire. We do not charge charities or suppliers for our work and are supported entirely by our donors.
