Approximately 1.3 billion tonnes of food waste is generated in Scotland each year, with 46% of this from households. According to “Low Carbon Scotland: a behaviour framework”, this is responsible for 21% of Scotland’s total greenhouse gas emissions.  In addition, 60% of food wasted at home is avoidable.  If avoided, the benefit to the planet would be the same as taking 1 in 4 cars off Scotland’s roads.  And it would be good for the pocket too.

This workshop will provide attendees with knowledge of the scale and impact of food waste in Scotland, as well as understanding and practical skills around the simple things we can all do to stop wasting food and save money in the process.

So come along to this fun, free workshop, where you can learn about menu planning, storage and ways to use up leftovers and store cupboard ingredients, to help cut down trips to the supermarket and make the food shop go further. By putting these tips into action, you could save up to £437 a year!
