Help Cherwell Collective create change through community connections

Our Mission: We reduce waste and promote sustainability:

Cherwell Larder Marketplace: Distributing surplus food and essentials

Climatarian Kitchen: Repurposing surplus food into inspiring meals

Harvest @ Home: growing food locally.

Oxford Party Library: Reducing waste by sharing party supplies.

WISH (Waste Innovation Station HQ): A community hub and interactive climate change museum that empowers individuals to reduce their carbon footprint.




Why We Need Your Support:

We’ve had tremendous impact so far:
450 meals served weekly with surplus and local food.
21,000 meals provided to support vulnerable groups in the last year.
50,000 participants engaged in activities in 2023.
16.6 tonnes of food saved from ending up in landfill.
149 tonnes of metal, plastic, and clothing diverted from landfill

Cherwell Collective, CIC is a grassroots not-for-profit leading multiple community projects aimed at reducing waste, building community resilience, and empowering vulnerable groups.

We're fundraising to expand our efforts and make our new Waste Innovation Station Headquarter (WISH) space more accessible and functional.



Help YOUR community cut carbon footprints and support one another through crisis.
