King Charles to Launch Food Hubs for 76th Birthday

The King's initiative aims to tackle food waste and support communities as part of the Coronation Food Project's first anniversary.

King Charles will celebrate his 76th birthday by opening two food distribution hubs, marking the first anniversary of the Coronation Food Project.
The initiative is designed to save and redistribute surplus food to charities, helping organizations like FareShare and the Felix Project.
A 'surplus food festival' will be hosted at one of the new hubs, featuring meals made from food that would otherwise go to waste.
The project has already saved 940 tonnes of surplus food, equivalent to over 2.2 million meal portions, and aims to expand with up to 10 hubs across the UK.
Over £15 million has been raised to enhance the food distribution network, including funding for warehouses, refrigerated vehicles, and community grants.
