A community fridge is on a mission to help even more families in need.

Sutton Community Fridge has launched a JustGiving page as they look to raise £2,000 to aid their expansion.

This money will be used to help open a new fridge in Langley, allowing them to support more families struggling with the cost of living.

Secretary Kirsty Larkin said: "It's an extremely important resource.

"We have people who rely on us on a daily basis to feed their families, especially those with young children, the elderly and those on low incomes."

Sutton Community Fridge was setup in December 2024 by Gayle Parks and today supports around 200 people every week.

"Times were difficult", Kirsty said.

Each day, a team of 25 volunteers collect leftover and surplus food from local supermarkets, even travelling as far as Stockport, Knutsford and Kidsgrove.

This food is then brought back to the shed in Sutton, to be collected by those in need the next day.

Last week alone, they collected two tonnes of food.

With demand growing, they are now looking to secure a new unit in Langley and need £2,000 to pay for the deposit.

Kirsty added: "We have outgrown the shed and because of the sheer volume of food we need to expand.

"This location is more central and accessible, it will also enable us to have a community hub and a safe space for people to attend.

"We would be able to provide a different variety of food items from FareShare (the UK's largest charity fighting hunger and food waste) such as cupboard items and frozen goods and ensure they are safely stored away."

To support the JustGiving page, which can be viewed here, Sutton Community Fridge are hosting a Valentine's Bingo Night.

This will take place at Sutton Ex-Servicemen's Club on Friday, February 6.
