September means Zero Waste Week, and this year’s theme is ‘Use it up!’ – with a focus on food waste, and how to reduce it. The week runs from 5th-9th September this year, and in celebration of this important campaign, we are running a Zero Waste competition throughout the month of September. Recycle Week and Waste Less Live More Week are also this month, so there’s lots to celebrate!
Win a Zero Waste lunch kit!
We have a wonderful zero waste lunch kit to give away. This kit includes a stainless steel two-tier lunchbox (which contains a small additional container), a glass water bottle, and a sustainable bamboo spork. This brilliant prize is worth £50.00, and could be yours if you enter our fun competition.
This zero waste lunch kit would be great for use at home, work, when travelling, for late summer picnics… there are so many possibilities!
How do I enter?
This is the fun bit! To enter our competition, you just need to send us a photo on Twitter of how you are reducing your food waste, or ‘using it up’. You could be eating leftovers for lunch, composting your veg peelings, or perhaps wearing a facemask made of an overripe banana! You might just be cooking less food or buying less food. However you are creating less food waste, send us a picture and let us know – it could win you an amazing zero waste lunch kit!
Tweet your photos alongside any information about the image, and the hashtag #ZeroWasteWeek. It’s that simple! You can enter the competition as many times as you like, with different food waste reduction ideas.
