Year of the Fix: | 2013 |
Location: | Ramsgate, Kent |
Campaign: | Stop food waste |
I absolutely love cooking and have cooked since childhood. But it really gets to me that so many people waste food.
A lot of food can be reused to make a variety of dishes. Not only does this save money, but it can save the environment as less food goes to landfill sites across the UK.
With the help of Fixers, I hope to create a cookbook to encourage young people to use their leftovers to cook simple dishes at minimal cost.
Here is a list of Fixers helping me with my Fix:
Javell Nelson | Matthew Dennis |
Will Greaves | Matthew Nevard |
Harry Cairns | Mackenzie Brown |
Audrey Chigwede | Ellen Watson |
Jessica Choudhury | Abby Lainsbury |
Camilla Brisley | Charlotte Rose |
