Too Good to Go (an app to rescue surplus food)

too good to go

Too Good To Go is an app that is used to create “surprise bags” from cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and supermarkets. You pay a reduced price, then collect near closing time, to get a real bargain, and the shops also make some extra cash, on food they would otherwise have to bin ‘before midnight’.

Olio (a neighbourly food sharing app)

Olio has business pick-ups too, but mostly works for people who have leftover carrots in their veg box, unopened pasta or tins they won’t use (say if going on holiday or into hospital). It suits people who like small, local exchanges and can pick up nearby in containers or insulated bags for chilled food.

Olio also donates non-food items. Avoid sharing items that could be unsafe like old toys. The Lullaby Trust does not recommend donating (or buying) second-hand baby items like mattresses or car seats (and never use cot bumpers). Its site has more info on preventing crib death.
