One year ago we partnered with OLIO - The Food Sharing Revolution,EMS Yorkshire, The Freedom Centre Hull, FareShare UKand Hull Food Partnership to launch a major food sharing network in Hull.
The Hull Food Save Project has brought the community together, as neighbours share with neighbours. With food donors from Cranswick, Sainsbury's, Costa Coffee, FareShare, numerous independent businesses and a local grassroots movement of passionate volunteers, together we have saved:
22,308 meals
9,369 kg of food
40,287 kg of C02
6.9m litres of water
Food waste is a national problem but one that can be solved locally – we would love the Hull Food Save Project to serve as a model for tackling food waste nationwide. Thank you to everyone involved!
