The Real Junk Food Project was one of the first things I came across when researching. Whats great about this organisation is that it's based in Leeds, making it handy for me to speak to them and get some research for my dissertation.
Founded in 22 February 2013, The Real Junk Food Project is a collaborative effort between catering professionals and activists to bring about a radical change in our food system.
Their main objective is to task is to intercept perfectly edible food that would otherwise not make it to plate and serve it as meals in the café or distribute it through their food boutique.
They also run a Pay-as-you-feel (PAYF) policy, so there's no price on any produce.
This is a perfect organisation to talk to regarding both my written piece and my practical. It's so important that they have a strong link, so by letting my findings lead both aspects of the module they should have a clear link.
What I think would be a great idea, is that I could ask The Real Junk Food Project is they would be interested in collaborating with me and have me produce work for them. This would help inform locals about food waste.
