CHARITY OF THE YEAR: Devon & Cornwall Food Action (DCFA)Devon & Cornwall Food Action

The DCFA receive surplus produce from food suppliers and manufacturers such as Morrisons, CO-OP, Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, Lidl and Marks and Spencer. 

They then redistribute this produce to people in need through organisations and schemes that run.

Money raised from fundraisers and events can allow us to donate to this charity, so getting involved with the society helps greatly and allows us to support this organisation.
