OBAN’S Tesco and FareShare are asking charities and community groups to register for a scheme which will see unsold food become meals for vulnerable people in the town.
Tesco’s Community Food Connection programme with FareShare supports charities and community groups, linking them to Tesco stores via an app that allows store teams to alert them to surplus unsold food each day.
The store in Oban will be involved in the programme. The unsold food is free and includes fresh produce, such as fruit, vegetables and bakery products. Chilled products like meat, dairy and ready meals are also offered.
