"Taking part in the Waste Less Challenge has been a real eye-opener for our household...I’d say we cut our food waste by at least half over the week - and our food shop was about £20 cheaper than usual. That really adds up over time!

I’d definitely do this again. It’s made a noticeable difference, not just to our bin, but to our budget and even how we feel about food. I’d recommend the challenge to anyone - it’s simple, but the impact is huge."
