Be Enriched
Enriching Communities through food and friendships
Be Enriched is a South London Food Charity, established in 2013. Our mission is to create a world buzzing with connection, where food, planet and people are united. We use food as a tool to bring people together, cultivate joy, dignity and community relationships. Fostering resilience and creating long lasting change whilst fighting food waste and nourishing the community.

Our three main community projects are: Community Canteens in Tooting, Clapham, and Elephant and Castle, the Food Bus and Food Float - London's first lower cost, mobile greengrocers and community space, and Kids Clubs providing food, fun, and friendship to children and their families during school holidays. You can find out more on our website at www.be-enriched.org.

Our Community Canteens served over 4,100 guests in 2025, working with 950 volunteers at three different locations in South London. Both individual and corporate volunteer groups get the chance to step into the shoes of professional chefs and prepare and serve a three-course meal using surplus food to the canteen guests.
