How can you reduce your food waste?
Here are some handy tips from FoodHub volunteers, which can help the average family of four save up to £60 per month from reducing food waste:
Before your next shop, make a soup out of what is still safe to eat that is lurking in your fridge drawer.
All sorts of things can be combined with eggs to make an omelette or frittata. Use that extra slice of ham, rasher of bacon, leftover cooked potatoes or many kinds of vegetable to easily transform eggs into a substantial meal.
Slice and freeze squishy bananas and they’re ready to add to a smoothie.

Being in refuge after a nasty break-up was difficult enough for a mother of three.
But a car crash, leading to a leg amputation, meant she lost her work income - leaving her family in a perilous position.
The mother, who did not want to named, is one of countless people who have seen Covid and other factors push them to the brink of despair and going hungry.
She is also one of countless people who have reason to be grateful for foodbanks.
For she received support from the St Mary Magdalene Church foodbank in Gorleston.

A stroll down Stockholm’s longest street that takes its name from the mythical Valhalla, where Norse gods feast and fight until doomsday, gives a hint of the battle today’s power grids face to keep pace with government goals to electrify transport.

It’s progress, but not enough.

Electric vehicle charging in Stockholm
LONDON/STOCKHOLM (Reuters) – A stroll down Stockholm’s longest street that takes its name from the mythical Valhalla, where Norse gods feast and fight until doomsday, gives a hint of the battle today’s power grids face to keep pace with government goals to electrify transport.
Early this month, a man selling Christmas trees looked on as workers installed 10 public vehicle charging stations with two power outlets each in Valhallavägen, which is around 3.5 kilometers (2.17 miles) long.
It’s progress, but not enough.
