Did you know that from 31 March, all businesses will be legally required to recycle their food waste?

Bristol Good Food 2030 is running a FREE event on food waste on 18th March in central Bristol, aimed at supporting the food sector, caterers and hospitality businesses to reduce their food waste, with opportunities for peer learning and networking.

A panel of industry leaders from Veolia, Resource Futures, Boston Tea Party, Windmill Hill City Farm, Bristol Food Network and the Bristol BIDs (Redcliffe & Temple, Bristol City Centre), will share knowledge and support everyone to prepare for the new Simpler Recycling legislation, effective from 31 March. Plus, there will be peer discussions and workshops exploring best practices, challenges, and strategies for waste reduction – all over hot drinks and biscuits.

Join us and other food sector businesses at this free event during Food Waste Action Week:
