8 MARCH 2023, WINCHESTER FOOD CHARTER LAUNCH EVENT!
On Wednesday the 8th March the Partnership launched the Winchester Food Charter
We had over 50 attendees sign up through Eventbrite and join us at the University of Winchester for our lunch time event, which also celebrated and promoted action on food waste
With support from the University, we launched the Winchester Food Charter. There was wide interest for the charter with a number of guests signing up, including Sarah Greer, Vice Chancellor, who signed the charter on behalf of the University!
There was a wonderful free lunch, made with surplus food, donated by Harvest Fine Food, the university’s fruit and veg supplier, all in support of WRAP’s Win, Don’t Bin campaign for Food Waste Action Week.

food waste action week - march 6th-12th
Food Waste Action Week is a national annual campaign from WRAP (Waste and Resources Action Programme) with the aim to raise awareness of the impacts of food waste and encourage people to take action.
During the week, we challenged everyone to make a difference and at our food Waste event we shared tips and advice on how to reduce food waste in the home, such as meal planning and using up leftovers. Those that attended gained real benefit, especially from networking with other attendees
Make a note in your diary and join us for Food Waste Action Week 2024 and continue the work together to make real change.
