Volunteers have volunteered more than 1,000 hours to save 34 tonnes of uneaten food from going into the bin at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
Since Sunday, around 50 assistants from Community Lards of Roode and Towcester have walked back and forth from the Northamptonshire racetrack to offer items such as eggs, milk, fruit, vegetables and even a carpet at pop-up shops.
Katie Steele, of the Towcester group, said they had seen “record attendance” and believed the groups had helped around 3,000 people.
He said the collection finished on Friday and was only possible by “absolutely amazing teamwork”.
