NDCSA, the community association and charity that operate Bloomfield House Community Centre intend to establish Wales first permanent Community Fridge and Larder. The association are seeking funding to employ a part time Project Coordinator to steer the project for 2 years. Community Fridges are a great way of stopping good food ending up in the bin. Theyre housed in public, accessible places, making surplus perishable food freely available to members of the public. Surplus food is provided by local businesses or members of the public and is then available to members of the community. They work on an honesty basis. The association intend to employ a part time Coordinator to engage volunteers, establish the project at Bloomfield and introduce the community fridge concept to Pembrokeshire. The Coordinator will also be tasked with creating awareness raising events at Bloomfield using some of the donated items from the community fridge and setting up a social media network.
