4.5 million tonnes of edible food is thrown away each year by UK households.
Shockingly, 25% of this wasted food is due to cooking, preparing or serving too much - this
costs UK households £3.5 billion each year.
That is why Love Food Hate Waste is dedicating a whole week of action to shining a light
on how simple behaviours to reduce food waste can save time and money. This will
ultimately reduce the impact of food waste on climate change.
Their third annual campaign will take place 6 - 12 March 2023.
The theme for Food Waste Action Week 2023 is ‘Win. Don’t Bin.’ and it will demonstrate
how valuable food is in our lives, how it unites people and how using up everything we buy
saves money, time and the planet.
