Bradford food service evolves after starting up in bus stop | Bradford Telegraph and Argus

A BRADFORD charity food service that started up in a bus stop during the first lockdown is going from strength to strength. Better Eat Food Service CIC, which started life in a bus stop, has been supporting its community throughout the Covid-19 pandemic by providing food to an average of 200 people each week thanks to food provided by local Tesco stores. Better Eat receives food parcels containing a variety of food products provided through Tesco’s Community Food Connection scheme, which is run in partnership with food redistribution charity FareShare. Run by a team of 18 volunteers, Better Eat collects, sorts and distributes food from Tesco stores and other sources in the area to help reduce surplus food and provide supplies for local people who rely on this service as their weekly access to free food.

Community Food Connection hosts ribbon cutting for new location Officials said the new location will help the nonprofit better help people in Blount County who need extra food assistance.

It started in 1991 when a group of churches, concerned citizens and the Blount County Ecumenical Action Council decided to pool resources and fill food pantries.

Over 1 Billion Tonnes More Food Being Wasted Than Previously Estimated, Contributing 10% of All Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Today, WWF and Tesco publish Driven to Waste, a new report that quantifies the total amount of food lost on farms globally, revealing an estimated 2.5 billion tonnes of food 2 goes uneaten around the world each year. That is an increase of approximately 1.2 billion tonnes on the established estimates of 1.3 billion tonnes wasted each year. These new estimates indicate that of all the food grown, approximately 40 per cent goes uneaten, which is higher than the previously estimated figure of 33% 3. Driven to Waste is the first quantification of total on-farm food losses since 2011. When combined with updated data on loss in supply chains and waste at retail and consumption, we have a clearer picture of the scale of food loss and waste from farm to fork that demonstrates for the first time how imperative it is that this stage is no longer overlooked in efforts to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius.
