How to Reduce Your Household's Food Waste

Our Alliance Online marketing manager, Mike Hardman, outlines his top tips for reducing your food waste after the coronavirus lockdown and beyond. Food waste has long been a huge problem in the UK, with WRAP estimating that we send around 6.6 million tonnes of household food waste to landfill each year. This is an improvement on the 8.1 million tonnes that were thrown away back in 2007, which means we’re definitely heading in the right direction. But things are improving very slowly, and this just isn’t sustainable. Due to the UK’s coronavirus lockdown and tiered restrictions, we’ve all been spending far more time at home, which means we’re buying and cooking a lot more food in our own kitchens. If you’ve noticed that you’re throwing away more food than normal, or this time in lockdown has simply given you some time to think about how you would like to live responsibly, you might be looking for ways to reduce how much food waste your household is creating. So, here, I’ll be offering my top tips, which you can use both during lockdown, and once this crisis has blown over.
