OUR

SOCIAL VALUE

At Rethink Food, social value isn’t just a metric, it’s the heart of everything we do.

As a not-for-profit social business, we are committed to addressing food insecurity, improving health and wellbeing, and equipping the next generation with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive. Our mission goes beyond immediate support we focus on long-term impact, empowering communities and building resilience.

Through our work with schools, families, and business partners, we aim to:

  • Transfer learning: We help young people and families understand the connection between food, sustainability, and health, laying the foundations for long-term change.
  • Build capacity: By supporting educators, schools, and community leaders, we strengthen the ability of others to lead local solutions.
  • Deliver lasting impact: Whether through the National School Pantry Network, our education programmes, or our food redistribution work, we design initiatives that deliver measurable outcomes – socially, environmentally, and economically.

We generate social value by:

  • Reducing food waste and hunger
  • Supporting healthier lifestyles
  • Enhancing educational outcomes
  • Strengthening community networks
  • Supporting partners to meet ESG and CSR goals
