Shrewsbury Town Council is leading Shrewsbury’s bid to win £1m of investment to become the UK’s leading zero food waste town.
Sainsbury’s are seeking a UK town with a population of 15,000 to 300,000 to become the test bed for some of the most innovative ideas to reduce food waste. The selected town will receive a £1 million investment in the first year, and will be used as a blueprint so that communities across the country can benefit from the results.

This is a fantastic opportunity to strengthen our food economy, to reduce poverty, to save money benefitting not only local families and households, but community groups and organisations whilst protecting the environment.
Closing date for entries is very tight with completed application forms being submitted by 30th October but there is nothing like tight deadlines for focussing the mind.
