 What we are doing to reduce our food waste
  • Developing new recipes from ingredients that would normally go to waste

  • Plating up lounge meals so lunch is pre portioned 

  • Communication with food bookers about over ordering

  • Encourage drinks on request for meetings

  • We have made contact with an external company about looking at other ways to reduce our production waste

  • The battle for zero waste continues

 

See below top tips in our A - Z brochure, giving you suggestions at home where we can all make a little difference.
