Unit 1 Helmets

What happens to unsold food at Borough Market? In this video, I head to one of London’s most famous food markets to collect surplus food for free and deliver it to local charities using a cargo e-bike. Teaming up with Plan Zheroes, we rescue food that would otherwise go to waste and redistribute it to people facing food insecurity. In just one evening, we collected an unbelievable amount of surplus food and delivered it across London — turning waste into meals. 🚲 What you’ll see: - How surplus food is collected from Borough Market - Behind the scenes with Plan Zheroes volunteers - Real food bank and charity deliveries in London - How e-bikes are changing urban delivery - A full test of a cargo e-bike for food distribution 🌍 Why food waste matters Around 3 million tonnes of food are wasted by UK businesses every year, while millions of people struggle to access regular meals. Food redistribution charities like Plan Zheroes are helping solve this problem by connecting surplus food with communities in need. 🙌 How to get involved If you're in London, you can volunteer with Plan Zheroes and help redistribute food by bike. No experience needed — just your time and willingness to help.
