When Dan Byam Shaw first began driving food delivery vans for the charity created in honour of his late brother, he was struck by how often people would greet the vehicle saying: “Look, Felix is here.”
The Felix Project’s logo, a trace of Felix’s own signature on a Mother’s Day card, adorns the bright green delivery vans that transport rescued surplus good-to-eat food and redistribute it to people in need. Founded in 2016 after 14-year-old Felix died of a rare strain of meningitis, the charity has become a key lifeline for families and communities across London, tackling both food waste and food poverty simultaneously.
