In Kind Direct and CCG
Here at CCG we had worked with In Kind Direct which are a company who "inspires product giving for social good". And what they do is work with non-profit companies to make sure everyone has access to life's essentials.
How it works: In Kind Direct receives donated goods from companies and distributes them to UK charities working at home and overseas so they can help millions of people.

Foodshare helps several
Here at CCG we had another great foodshare which had ended up helping a lot of families feed themselves. We're really glad that we can help these families in their unfortunate circumstances. There was a lot of food to go around such as a lot of fruit and vegetables and more.
We hope every family that was able to get food enjoy their food. Foodshares will also be back in 56 from now on.

So much food is unnecessarily being wasted when it could go to a better cause.
