For residents

 

If you have not been involved in the campaign so far, start by taking a look at WRAP's Love Food Hate Waste website to find out how you can reduce your food waste and start saving money now. 

We also have some fantastic top tips from north London residents on how you can prevent food from being wasted.  How about this one for starters from Andrew Malcolm in Haringey:

"Leftover cooked mince and rice can be re-done just by adding 3 eggs and gently frying until you have Mince & Egg Fried Rice!"
