New community base for Kaibosh
Kaibosh is establishing a new hub in Petone to meet the growing community demand for food.
The food rescue charity is moving their Lower Hutt premises to a large facility in Petone. It will become their central base, from where they'll redistribute food to communities in Wellington, the Hutt Valley, Kāpiti, and Horowhenua.
Kaibosh general manager Matt Dagger says COVID-19 has created a crisis and more people than ever cannot afford to buy food.
The new facility will allow Kaibosh to help address the need for food relief in the wider Wellington region, and install better food waste practices in Lower Hutt.
