Nick Wilkinson is raising money for Exeter Food Action

Exeter Food Action saves food and redistributes it to organisations that feed people. We work with supermarkets, wholesalers and manufacturers to make sure that good food is rescued, and goes to those who need it in and around Exeter.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm trying to raise money for a worthy cause, Exeter Food Action, as they save food from going to waste and redistribute it to a range of local charities who then get it into the mouths of deserving people. I thought of doing this as I need a physical challenge for my Bronze DofE and as we've got a rowing machine etc etc. Initially I thought of the English Channel distance as a reference to the journey people risk their lives on, trying to get to the UK to build a better future for themselves - we're so lucky to be here already. I'm not looking to raise a lot but every penny will feed people, there's something satisfying about that. Thanks for reading, Ike.
