Love Food Hate Waste Community Action Fund

Food waste is a real problem

  • 8.3 million tonnes of food is thrown away by households in the UK every year.
  • Reducing food waste is a major issue and this is not just about good food going to waste; wasting food costs the average family with children £680 a year and has serious environmental implications too.
  • If we all stop wasting food that could have been eaten, the CO2 impact would be the equivalent of taking 1 in 4 cars off the road.

Grants of between £100 and £500 to voluntary and community groups in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. The grants are to fund an event or activity which tries to encourage people to reduce their food waste.

Your activity or event must involve more than 12 people and applications for a grant are invited until December 2010 but they will be allocated on a first come first served basis, so late applicants may be unsuccessful.
