Food Savvy Norfolk

Food Savvy Norfolk is here to help you tackle food waste, whilst celebrating good food and saving you money.

We are excited to have joined forces with Suffolk Councils and the environmental charity Hubbub to become #FoodSavvy to help people across both counties become smart with their food.

Here at Food Savvy Norfolk we want to continue to help you reduce the food you throw away, just as we did with our Plan Eat Save campaign. So, for savvy recipes, hints and tips follow us:

A competition to find Norfolk’s most tasty toastie has launched, as new research from Food Savvy reveals that bread is the item of food most frequently thrown away. Over a quarter of residents say they often throw unused bread in the bin, contributing to a whopping 20 million slices of bread thrown away every day in the UK – that’s 1 million loaves a day going to waste.
