12/01/2025: WCC Waste Minimisation project
Forwarding on from WCC Waste Minimisation Team as a courtesy:
Kia ora All,
Happy New Year and hope everyone has had a good break! You may have heard of Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW), an organisation which encourages and educates kiwi's on how to reduce food waste and save money.
LFHW is running a campaign promoting meal planning to combat food waste. The campaign will run through the month of March and WCC will be promoting it via various avenues, including hopefully your library or community centre 😊.
We have access to free display kits which are ideal for community centres, libraries etc. Each kit contains meal planning steps, posters, an information sheet with the campaign background and ideas for display and details on how to submit photos to win a LFHW prize pack.
More information on the campaign can be found here: TAO Toolkit -The Food Critics - Do Better Meal Planning (1).pdf
Poster examples are also attached to this email.
If you were interested in receiving a kit, please let us know by Friday 17th January. The kits will then be distributed to the centres between 10-17th February.
Ngā mihi,
The Waste Minimisation team.

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
