Feeding the 5000 stops waste
February 1st 2010 A large amount of food is wasted
in the UK every day, sometimes
for purely aesthetic reasons.
Highlighting
the problem
of food waste,
the 'Feeding
5,000' event
was held in
Trafalgar
Square in December. It was
organised by author and food
waste campaigner,Tristram
Stuart, highlighting the work of
partner organisations: Save the
Children,ActionAid,This is
Rubbish and FareShare.
Via its strategic partnership
with FareShare, the national food
redistribution charity, Sodexo
supported the day by
contributing a team of 15
volunteers and cooking
equipment. Lunch was served to
over 5,000 people.All the food
was made from fresh and
nutritious ingredients that would
otherwise have been wasted. More articles from Sodexo Services Group Ltd: |
