Up to £40,000, The fund is aimed at finding and supporting creative approaches to reducing food waste.
The fund will support UK registered organisations with an early-stage food waste project with potential for impact at scale.
Projects need to do some or all of the following:
• Address pre-farmgate waste (the food production process, up to the point where the products have been harvested and prepared as produce for sale).
• Prevent food from being wasted at the manufacturing and processing stage.
• Minimise food waste from retailers.
• Find creative ways to use surplus food in communities or at home.
The fund can support ideas that are ready to test, or concepts that have been tested and are ready to progress further.
