Help shape the future of the food sector

Food waste is making news at a time when many businesses are under intense pressures already, but it’s massive in cost of both money and resources - and increasingly an area of concern to customers too. 

WRAP, the Waste and Resources Action Programme, is an organisation developed by business, for businesses, to promote and educate on sustainable waste management. 

They have been working on a brand new online learning course to help food industry professionals cut down on food waste and the costs that come with it. 

And they’re asking your help to shape the course in its pilot phase before it is rolled out across the sector next year. 


Feed people, not bins 

Keeping track of food and costs is part of what running a responsible and successful business is all about. Guardians of Grub: Becoming a Champion’ will help you develop food waste reduction skills that are good for business, good for staff and good for the environment. 

The course can be a positive step in engaging staff as they return to work, as well as providing an opportunity to become a pioneer in your industry. 

Getting in at the early stages of this unique programme will mean that you can help shape best practice in the food sector.

You can complete it at your own pace, and it will enable you to become a Guardians of Grub Champion to help in the fight against food waste. 


About the course

Guardians of Grub: Becoming a Champion’ will take you step-by-step through a practical process to help you avoid the cost of wasted food.

‘Guardians of Grub: Becoming a Champion’ will not only help you operate your business sustainably and save costs, it can become a key part of you and your workforce’s continuing professional development.
