Devon and Cornwall Food Association

Information

DCFA is not a Foodbank.  Foodbanks issue food to individuals whereas DCFA issues only to charitable organisations that feed the disadvantaged in our communities either by providing cooked meals or by issuing food parcels.

Foodbanks obtain their food from supermarket customer donations.  DCFA endeavours to obtain surplus, short-date or end-of-line stocks from producers, manufacturers and retailers… food that might otherwise go to waste.

This alleviates food poverty and food waste and saves suppliers landfill tax too!
