How Share-It can support your food sharing:

SHARE IT is a free toolkit which will help your initiative estimate, communicate and improve its sustainability impacts. Whether your venture is engaged in the collective practices of growing, cooking, eating or redistributing food, it is also having an important impact by tackling particular environmental, economic, political and social issues. SHARE IT will support you to communicate these impacts by generating a tailored sustainability impact report for your initiative.

What do we mean by food sharers?

Our definition of food sharing includes any group that grows food together, eats food together or re-distributes waste and excess food. These groups can take many different forms and share all sorts of stuff, skills and space! Examples include community gardens, community supported agriculture, foraging groups, community kitchens, social dining groups, food banks, skip diving and waste food rescue initiatives and many more. We are passionate about raising awareness about their positive environmental, social and economic impacts. To achieve this we offer a free online sustainability impact assessment toolkit with lots of help available from our research team to highlight your impacts to stakeholders, policy makers and funding groups!
