Who we are

FareShare Sussex was started back in 2002 by City Gate Community Projects, with one van delivering to a handful of homeless shelters in Brighton and Hove. Today we have a fleet of 5 vans and one e-cargo bike. We deliver across Sussex and parts of Surrey with plans to expand our reach further.

City Gate Community Projects is the registered charity delivering food as FareShare in Sussex and Surrey. We form part of a national network of FareShare Regional Centres.

Our vision: no good food goes to waste in Sussex and Surrey
Our mission: to fight hunger, tackle food waste and empower volunteers through redistributing surplus food to vulnerable people
Our values: inclusivity – respect – passion – togetherness
