We're Here To Help

Answers to your frequently asked questions

How can I help or get involved?

The 3 main ways you can help are to donate funds, volunteer your time or become an investor. Please see the Support Us page for full details.

Where does Edible London get its funding from and what is your current financial status?

Edible London has income from our local market stall sales of fruit and vegetables jams and homemade produce, from our procurement contracts, training courses, corporate events and cooking programs, as well as from donations and grants.

Can I get Tax Relief through Gift Aid?

Edible London is a CIC (community interest company) and therefore does not have the tax advantages of a Charity so there are no tax breaks (credits) associated with your donation. Edible London keeps its cost base low to ensure your donations go a long way without these tax breaks.

How will Edible London use my donation?

Edible London uses your donations to pay for surplus food for redistribution, for the staff to manage our amazing volunteers and for premises and other running costs.

Is it possible to get a refund on my donation?

Yes, you can. If you have paid via PayPal, you can cancel via the payment via your account.

If you don’t have a PayPal account, please contact us with your pledge amount, and the reason you would like to be refunded. No fees apply.

Why is monthly giving the best option?

Monthly donations helps Edible London plan its longer term finances, it spreads the contribution for the donor whilst allowing ongoing costs of the CIC to be met each month. This is the most important type of donation because no matter the size it empowers us to plan and grow sustainably.

How do I make changes to my monthly donation?

You can make this change via your PayPal account. Or contact us for assistance. (send to the Contact Us - Ask a question form)

I don’t have a PayPal account, can I still donate?

Yes! You can make a donation without using a PayPal account using the form on our Donate page.

Please select the Bank Transfer option on the form and you will receive our Account Number and Sort Code by email.

What is the maximum I can give?

If you want to pay by PayPal, we authorise £500 maximum.

If you want to pay by Bank Transfer, there is no limit but Edible London may choose to accept donations up to £1,000 without the need for Board approval. Any and all donations over £1,000 require approval from the CEO and 1 additional Director. If you would like to donate more than £1,000 please complete the form on the Donate page and we will contact you. Thank you so much for your generosity!

Do you have a newsletter?

Yes, we send a monthly newsletter to let you know what we are up to. You can subscribe using the signup box at the bottom of the website.
