Plunkett Member

Plunkett UK is a charity that supports community-owned businesses across the UK, helping local people set up and run enterprises that benefit their communities. 

As members of Plunkett UK we support communities throughout the UK, providing community-run food hubs and kitchens with repurposed high-quality catering equipment.

As a Food Equipment Service supplier dedicated to helping their community, we often come across second-hand equipment that’s too good to scrap and immediately begin looking for good causes that could do with a helping hand.

All equipment is in working, tested condition – some may even be near new. All have been recovered from loving homes, now lost, and in need of a new loving family.

We escalate all equipment requests to our CSR committee to determine if we can meet the customer’s needs (and needs are sufficient) and will aim to respond with 3-5 working days.

If you’re interested in requesting any equipment, please contact csr@mcft.com.

Heart of England Forest

As part of our CSR programme, MCFT has set up a carbon offset programme to counter balance some of the energy used in running the business. Our engineers are out on the road on a daily basis and we strive to compensate for their CO2 emissions as much as possible. MCFT donations have enabled Heart of England Forest to establish and manage 20.76 acres of Forest, which equates to 18,661 trees, making the company fully carbon neutral. 

Since 2011, MCFT have donated over £56,000 and have been a dedicated friend of the Heart of England Forest. The forest stretches across Warwickshire in the heart of England – from the ancient Forest of Arden, south to the edge of the Vale of Evesham. It’s an area dense in cities, towns and industry, hence creating a place to walk under shady canopies and through airy glades, away from the bustle of city life.

In 2023 our donations have been recognised, by offering MCFT “Planting Partner” level of support. This level of support provides funding for the charity which enables the Heart of England Forest to drive progress forward, delivering tangible impact by helping grow the Forest, ensuring tree health and maintenance, optimising habitats that benefit the environment as well as wildlife, and supporting public access to enjoy the woodlands.

Charitable Support

We are passionate about donating to charities that are important to our People, through 4x5, wage contributions, and yearly/monthly drives.
