Sufra featured in an advert with James May
August 29, 2025
James May, best known for his work on Top Gear and The Grand Tour, has partnered with Omaze to help raise money for Fareshare.
As part of James May’s adventure for the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, he helped Sufra with one of our weekly food deliveries from The Felix Project, one of FareShare’s Network Partners.
Rajesh Makwana, Sufra’s Executive Director reflects:
“If we didn’t receive FareShare and Felix’s food, we would spend a small fortune purchasing similar items for our guests, to ensure families receive the right variety of food with sufficient nutritional value. The money we save helps us cover essential costs that are almost impossible to fundraise for – like admin and finance staff.”
“Thankfully, deliveries are always regular and reliable, allowing us to plan services effectively over the long term. Due to this regularity, we were able to provide nutritious food to 14,000 people last year alone. Fresh fruit and veg is a real hit with our guests and provide key ingredients for our community kitchen meals.”
By entering the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, you will be supporting FareShare to provide food to charities and community groups who are doing incredible work in their community, like Sufra.
