“This exhibition brings to life our impact data, showing the beauty of what we do, collaborating with artists on each annual value report. Each report explores the Value of Food Redistribution to Food, People & Planet.”
City Harvest rescues food from being wasted and delivers to those in need, breaking the waste cycle & feeding new cycles of improved health & a better tomorrow. ”

July 2023: The People Report collection.
Photography by Oscar J Ryan, captures the beautiful connection between City Harvest and the school communities we feed.
A series of confronting life-size prints shot in a school playground, these prints convey the size of the issue and the scale of City Harvest’s solution. 1 in 4 children doesn’t eat because the cost of living and food has risen so much that people cannot afford to feed their families and pay bills, with malnutrition and rickets becoming an increasing problem in children.
From October 2024, this stunning image will be roaming the UK on the side of our 26t truck rescuing food from farms and distributors to feed people in need.
