FFCK Meal Deliveries

FFCK is a community food project. We work to support Falmouth and Penryn to cook and eat good, healthy, local food.
We are powered by dedicated volunteers, intermittent funding and surplus food donations, creating nutritious home-cooked ready meals,
delivered directly to the doorsteps of people in our two towns.

This service has run for 5 years. Each subscriber receives 3 meals and a pudding every week.
To date (December 2025) we’ve made 73,283 meals.

Delivered to families, elderly people, people in food poverty, people without means to cook.
For whatever reason somebody subscribes, we will feed them.
It is a vital service, with no comparable alternatives, supporting local people, no questions asked, no hoops to jump.

However, we are not currently operating due to a lack of funds.

Can You Support?

Whilst we run an incredible, resourceful and vital service with a wonderful and dedicated team of volunteers, money is always our limiting factor.
We need more steady finances and more regular contributions to provide a sustainable and consistent service that people can rely upon.

This is why we are turning to you: our community, to help not us, but our neighbours.
We envision a model where the community and businesses of Falmouth and Penryn support, benefit and engage with each other through food.

Please, please, please (with supermarket-surplus-cherries on top) consider setting up a regular contribution with FFCK this winter.
By doing so you will help us move towards more sustainable finances, avoid these funding gaps, and more reliably relieve food insecurity in our towns.

Our whole service costs a little less than £2.50 per meal.
A properly nutritious meal, which we all deserve, for those who might not be able to access them otherwise.
Without your contributions, these meals will remain unmade.

Volunteer

If you would like to volunteer at the project please email us or add your name to the rota.
You are welcome to add your name multiple times, no experience required!
Jobs vary from food prep, cooking, washing up, packing and delivering.

Thank you.
