Enriching Communities
Through Food
Be Enriched is a South London Food Charity, established in 2013. Our mission is to create a world buzzing with connection, where food, planet and people are united. We use food as a tool to bring people together, cultivate joy, dignity and community relationships. Fostering resilience and creating long lasting change whilst fighting food waste and nourishing the community.
Community Canteens
Our Community Canteens bring neighbours together, with volunteers cooking a delicious and nutritious meal, using surplus food, This happens across three locations, each week.
The Food Bus Project
​The Food Bus Project is made up of our Food Bus and Food Float. Two mobile greengrocers aimed at serving areas with high food insecurity or limited access to affordable, healthy food.
School Holiday Kids Clubs
Our Kids Clubs are a school holiday provision, aimed at low-income families, providing food, fun and friendship.
National Recognition
On 7 November 2023, we were delighted to receive the British Nutrition Foundation’s (BNF) esteemed Drummond Community Award.
This accolade acknowledged Be Enriched’s remarkable endeavours in addressing the issue of healthier eating among vulnerable groups in the UK through delivery of Community Canteens, Kids Clubs and the Food Bus.
Speaking about the award, Bridget Benelam, Nutrition Communications Manager, at BNF, said: “At a time when it’s so difficult for many people to afford a healthy diet, Be Enriched provide nutritious meals from food that would otherwise be wasted to people at risk of social isolation. We were delighted to select Be Enriched as the winner of the BNF Drummond Community Award, recognising the amazing work they are doing for vulnerable people in the community.”
