Surplus to Purpose CIC Reviews 165

Really impressed by the quality of the fruit and veg box, as well as the quantity. Great value and reducing food waste into the bargain

Great service and help from Nas today, helping me fill my box and ideas of what to cook.

Order placed Friday for a Monday delivery.
Box arrived on the Monday with the contents as ordered, and was left in a secure location as I was out at the time.
Delivery driver texted to inform where the box had been left. Great food-waste initiative, great product and great service!

Have been a customer for a long time, but this was my first visit to the new warehouse. Nas was so helpful guiding me around and I left with an amazing box of produce! Incredible variety and value. I am against the profligate waste of food, and really applaud and appreciate this organisation's values. They are to be treasured, as should all the volunteers and staff. I can't speak highly enough. Thank you all.

Absolutely life-saving service. And what a fantastic way to reduce food wastage at the same time. I honestly couldn't believe how much came in my box and the quality of the produce. Fresh fruit, veg, cans, jars, and even a six-pack of effervescent vitamin C tablets! I've recommended Surplus to Purpose to all of my family and friends and personally will absolutely use again in the very near future. Thanks so much to all the staff and volunteers that keep it running!

I ordered a standard box and a small box of fruit and veg to be delivered - great selection, great value for money and the delivery team were friendly and polite as well. I'll be ordering again

What a great place with friendly and helpful staff. Nas went above and beyond to help as it was my first visit. I left with a £6 box full of so much food and amazing value, even got a bunch of flowers and a toy dinosaur too! I will definitely visit again soon. Thank you.

I went with my mum after following the page on Facebook for a few weeks. Times are so hard now with money and this place is amazing value for what you can pick and get. I wasn't too sure how the boxes worked, and didn't want to take too many items for my money. But 2 lovely lady's stood and explained to us. I will deffo be back!! (It's very helpfull looking on Facebook for stock updates)

Came across them during COVID and started to follow them. Always felt that what they were doing was so amazing and gutted as at the time I had no transport so could not get to them. When they opened in my local area was so happy. I have been a few occasions and the staff are so friendly and helpful. It is great value for money. The amount of fruit and veg you get is just so unbelievable. My most recent purchase was a mixed £6 box. The box was filled with fruit, vegetables, drinks, crisp, cake, bread items, muesli, curry sauce. Also purchased extra boxes of dates as gifts for Ramadan. Amazing stuff.

I've ordered a full box and couldn't be any happier with what I've got! Very good quality and value for money! I'm sure I'll be ordering again from surplus to purpose! And the driver couldn't be more helpful!

Friendly staff & great food, Glad it's not going to landfil.
