feed bellies not bins:

A Toolkit

THE ultimate food waste toolkit for schools

Cut waste. Boost savings. Feed more children well.

Reducing food waste is one of the most practical ways to improve school food. When less ends up in the bin, more of your budget goes straight onto the plate, supporting better ingredients, more scratch cooking, and meals pupils actually want to eat.

This toolkit brings together proven ideas from our expert chef trainers, developed in partnership with Hubbub and Eat It Up Fund, to help you reduce waste, save money, and build a better food culture across your school.
