By Word of Mouth is a top draw London catering company. After learning about City Harvest, the whole team came to the depot for a volunteer day and were so inspired by our team, they created something brilliant to keep on supporting our work…
2019, they developed the first ever charity “No Waste” canape using offcuts of fresh food that would have been wasted. Off-cuts of salmon, tomatoes, bread.
All orders of the ‘No Waste’ canape support City Harvest, so why not choose By Word of Mouth for your next event? Read more about them here and see their absolutely stunning photos.

Advocacy
Hannah Williams - Team GB, 400m
“I’m concerned about the issues of food poverty and homelessness in London so wanted to help City Harvest, and see the charity’s impact firsthand. Going on a van to collect surplus food from some major UK supermarkets and deliver it to recipient charities in the area was amazing. To be part of an operation like that, just for a day, was exhilarating and eye-opening. I would urge everyone to go and volunteer. If you head to the EQUALS page you can see just how much impact you can have.”
Shanice Beckford-Norton, London Ladies Women's Guard
“City Harvest does amazing work providing food for those who are less fortunate. It was great teaming up with City Havest at its charity partner, Beckton Globe Youth Zone, connecting through our EQUAL love for giving back to the community, and basketball. Any time and anything you can give, or do, makes a massive difference.”
Bradley Kaboza, London Lions
Bradley with Shanice Beckford-Norton supporting the EQUALS campaign.
If you believe that children have a right to thrive and not simply survive, and that nutrition is key to a healthy start in life, we would love you to share our message and be a role model to people who need support.

London Football Clubs
Mike Summers, Palace for Life Foundation CEO
“We’ve been partnered with City Harvest for nearly 3 years now. During the pandemic, we provided free, healthy meals prepared by our chefs at the stadium and City Harvest distributed them to food banks throughout the community. We were delighted to get involved with City Harvest again at Christmas, collecting food that was generously donated by our fans, to be distributed to the wider community. Thank you, City Harvest.”
We love working with football clubs to roll out our 1 can in the community project on match days to connect the fans to their communities.
