Based in Borough Market, I discovered La Tua’s amazing home delivery service through their partnership with The Felix Project, the London charity that rescues surplus food from the food industry and delivers it to over 350 front line charities and schools.
Last year La Tua Pasta donated over 6500 kg of pasta to The Felix Project – to feed families in need, as well as supporting NHS front line health workers with hot meals. They’ve just relaunched their 50% website discount to all NHS workers, to help keep them on their feet and well fed during these critical weeks.
