Description

It's National Food Waste Action Week and to mark it, we're sharing some special episodes to look at where some of our food goes, and in this particular case, where it comes from.

Last year, here at FareShare Greater Manchester, we redistributed almost 2,000 tonnes of surplus food which would otherwise have gone to waste. In real terms, that's equivalent to 4.6 million meals which went to support 306 charities and community groups across our city and beyond.

In this episode we're speaking to three of our local food suppliers, Hartshead Meats in Tameside, Holland's Pies in Lancashire & Soreen in Trafford Park.
