Feeding Families and Fighting Food Waste

Mary Creagh MP with Cllr George Devlin, Executive Member for Housing and Advice on Trafford Council

Mary Creagh MP visited The Bread and Butter Thing - a food club in Trafford Park – to see firsthand the impact of the £13.6 million funding from Defra announced earlier this year.

Mary said: “Good food belongs on plates, not in bins. The staff and volunteers at The Bread and Butter Thing in Trafford Park are a fantastic example of how food clubs can cut food waste and get surplus food to the people who need it most. Labour’s Plan for Change is tackling food poverty while cutting down on waste, with £13.6 million of funding for projects like this, helping people and the planet."
