Cardiff looks after its own.
Friendly, proud, and famously welcoming — this is Cardiff doing what it does best. Every meal keeps a neighbour fed, sends work to a local kitchen, and keeps an old Welsh habit alive: looking after one another. Whoever you are, however you got here — welcome.
These numbers update as requests, donations and deliveries happen — see them all below.

How it works
Three simple steps, with a verification check built in at every stage to protect the people we're helping.
Request or refer
Anyone can request help for themselves, or refer a family member, neighbour, or patient. Every request is checked before it's made public — no one is listed without consent.
Donate & book
Community members browse open requests, choose how many meals to fund, and pick (or let us match) a local business to cook them.
Cook, deliver, track
The business prepares and delivers the meal. Every step is tracked, right through to confirmed delivery — for the donor, the recipient, and the platform's public impact record.
Good for Cardiff, not just for one dinner
Every meal ripples outward — here's what it means for the city, not just the person eating it.
Local kitchens get the work
Every booking is money straight into a Cardiff kitchen, not a national chain — keeping local jobs and local flavour alive.
Neighbours stay neighbours
A meal is often the reason someone knocks on a door, has a proper conversation, or feels less alone that week.
An old habit, kept alive
Looking after the person down the street is a very Cardiff, very Welsh instinct. This just makes it easier to act on.
The people behind the numbers
Every statistic on this site is a real person waiting for a meal. Here are three of their stories.
