OLIO: free local sharing of surplus food and household items

OLIO is a free mobile app and online community that enables neighbours, volunteers and businesses to offer surplus food and household items for free to local people — it’s aimed at anyone wanting to reduce waste and save money. Users create a profile, list items with photos and collection details, and arrange safe handovers through the app; recipients collect items locally at no charge. OLIO is available across many UK towns and cities and is free to download and use, though users should follow food‑safety guidance on the site.
