Why FareShare Sussex?

We have a great relationship with the team at FareShare Sussex. Hundreds of thousands of tonnes of good food is wasted by the UK food industry every year. At the same time, millions of people are struggling to afford to eat.

This crisis has now been amplified by the Covid-19 pandemic, and so we want to do a little more to help change this and create a positive impact.

The Challenge

As we plunge headfirst back into lockdown, it would be easy to simply shut ourselves off from the world. Striving to stay motivated, energised and united, the team at Tilt has committed to an initiative called “Lockdown Laps”.

Each week we will run, walk, ride and swim our favourite local outdoor routes and log them using Strava to achieve our weekly activity total.

At the end of each week, the total miles are converted to equivalent £s and 50% is donated to Fareshare Sussex.

The remaining 50% is then donated to a separate charity; nominated by the team member who wins that weeks challenge. Keep an eye on our news page for weekly updates.

During the November lockdown we logged 1300 miles with £1300 donated to charity.

This lockdown we want to go further and have set a stretch target of 1500 miles.
