Carlinghow schoolchildren learn about food waste
Carlinghow Princess Royal Junior and Infant School will host a free breakfast organised by the group, which takes food that would otherwise be thrown out to cook and be sold on a “pay-as-you-feel” basis, and Morrison’s.
Alison Killeen, from the school’s pastoral support team, said: “The aim of the free breakfast is to develop awareness of the vast amounts of ‘waste’ food which is thrown away from supermarkets and to appreciate the value of healthy nutritional food at breakfast time that can improve cognitive function.”
