Community Fridge
“Sharing good food, reducing waste, supporting our community.”
What is the Community Fridge?
The Swansea Community Fridge is a welcoming space where surplus food is shared with the whole community, helping people access fresh food while reducing waste. Everyone is welcome to use the fridge — there are no restrictions or eligibility criteria. Anyone can drop in — you don’t need a referral or an appointment.
We stock a mix of fresh produce and store-cupboard items, thanks to donations from local businesses, retailers, and growers.
How it works
- Location: Customs House, Cambrian Place, Swansea, SA1 1RG (side black gates – look for our flag and blackboard)
- Open: Wednesdays from 12.30 until the food runs out
- No need to book — just turn up
- Please bring your own bag
- On your first visit we’ll take a few details for registration (kept secure).
Why it matters
- Saves over 1,000 kilos of good food from going to waste every month
- Helps people across our community to access fresh, healthy food
- Brings people together and reduces social isolation
- Supports a more sustainable and caring community
The Community Fridge is about more than food – it’s about sharing, supporting, and sustaining our community.
Support the Fridge
We rely on donations and small grants to keep the fridge running. A small contribution helps cover costs like food collections, electricity, and top-up supplies.
You can donate in person, online via our Just Giving page or Bankuet page, or by buying items from our Amazon wishlist.
