Stop, think and don’t throw away – donate!

 More and more companies are joining the efforts to reduce the massive amount of unnecessary food waste we currently create in our society.

We’d like to thank, among others, Diageo (www.diageo.co.uk) for taking the time to stop, think and donate the whole of the stock from their on-site mock convenience store to Best Before Project for redistribution among charities in need – the charities very extremely grateful for the items! Many companies simply throw unwanted stuff away…so well done and thanks again!

The Glamorous World of Food Waste

In 2021 we’re reviving the Best Before Project blog and increasing our media presence and visibility to spread the word about our work. In order to do that however, there’s one important thing you should know about us, the target of our project - Reducing food waste. It’s not the most glamorous subject to learn about, but understanding food waste is key to understanding our goals and why we do what we do. The BBPs main goal is to educate the public on the misconceptions about best before dates and reduce the amount of food ending up in landfills. So many of us assume that when a piece of food reaches its best before date, it’s ‘gone off’ but the BBP aims to show that this isn’t the case and that there are many things to do with food that’s past its best before date. Together with many other charities and organisations, the Best Before Project aims ultimately to make a positive difference in people’s lives and the wider world, a goal that we’re sure many of you share.  As food waste...

Food, Food and more food in East Acton BBP storage!

 Recently we have been receiving a big amount of food in our East Acton storage. take a look!

Best before, still good after – not only food :)

  We are in constant need of sealable storage boxes in which we temporarily store all the lovely food donated to us by businesses willing to go the extra mile not to waste food before we we redistribute it among local charities. We’d like to thank The London Borough of Lambeth Waste Prevention Team, and Pawel Ryczan in particular, for collecting from their depot boxes saved from landfill and donating them to Best Before Project to be put to good use again.  THANK YOU
