Compel hospitality companies to give leftover food to food banks or shelters

Petition Details

11% of all food wasted in the UK is by hospitality and food service companies which is about 1 million tonnes of food per year - all of which could be put to a better cause in the form of donations to food banks and/or homeless shelters

Additional Information

The average age of death for homeless people is 44 for men and 42 for women. Available literature has reported the dietary intake of homeless women and children living in temporary accommodation in north-west England to be poor with many women failing to meet the recommendations for energy, protein, fibre, calcium, iron, vitamin C and folate. Key issues affecting problem drug and alcohol users include irregular meal patterns, not eating anything on certain days, and concerns around weight loss.
