Thorpe St Andrew has a Community Fridge, it is located at the Dussindale Centre with core opening hours of 9am to 4pm Monday to Friday. Food Waste is a big issue in the UK and the fridge is all about reducing waste from supermarkets, products that are still good but can not be sold. The fridge is not a Food Bank and there will not be food available all the time, it is purely an opportunity for residents to help reduce food waste.
Opened in spring 2018 the Dussindale Centre Community Fridge is one of the most successful community projects in Norfolk. The initial plan was organised by Norfolk County Council with the plan to have a community fridge in every district. Run by local Thorpe St Andrew Councillor Jonathan Emsell the fridge has been able to survive as the others closed.
If you have any questions regarding the community fridge, please call Jonathan on 07717362842.
