Every year The Fishbourne Literary festival share some of the profits from the annual event with local charities. Listed below are some we have donated to, this year UKHarvest.
UKHarvest
UKHarvest are focused on reducing food waste by working with food producers, across the food production process, to rescue surplus edible food and ensure that it reaches those that need it most. Through regular Community Food Hubs, daily in-school Grub Clubs and Nourish Hub, UKHarvest’s community kitchen in Hammersmith, nutritious and healthy food that would have gone to waste, is donated to households who wish to support our mission to reduce food waste and Nourish Our Nation.
Education programmes are in operation online, in-schools and through our training kitchens at Nourish Hub and at UKHarvest HQ in Donnington to help support those conscious of reducing their own food waste in the home and making the most of the money they have spent on their food shopping. Join UKHarvest’s mission and donate today, to ensure that edible surplus food is no longer destined for landfil but used to feed all.
Welcome to Tuppenny Barn
Our vision is to create a better future for our children
through inspiring communities to learn about sustainable and organic food.
Tuppenny Barn is a UK registered charity. We cultivate and harvest organic produce, using this to create learning experiences for all ages and to promote the benefits of growing, cooking and eating healthy food.
From hosting school trips and after-school clubs, to workshops and holiday activities, we teach children where fruit and vegetables come from, the benefits of eating nutritional food and give them the skills to grow and prepare their own meals. We have also established a Young Carers project, which further supports local youth through our unique educational environment.
Sussex Snowdrop Trust
We are a unique charity providing ‘Nursing Care at Home’ for local children who have a life-threatening or terminal illness. Home – The Sussex Snowdrop Trust
Stone Pillow
Stonepillow support and empower homeless and vulnerable people to achieve sustainable independence and wellbeing.
In 2022 we are expecting to support 460 homeless people throughout West Sussex. Only a small percentage of these sleep on the street, with many of the homeless community hidden; sofa surfing, sleeping in cars, vulnerably housed or at risk of eviction.
Our teams focus on supporting people to maintain a stable life, health and home. We are asking for your help to enable us to continue responding to the challenges facing people who are homeless and rough sleeping. Stonepillow. St. Richard of Chichester Christian Care Association.
