Interactive and innovative food waste reduction campaign materials from Resource Futures!

At Resource Futures we believe in face-to-face interaction, particularly roadshows, to affect positive behavior change. Here we promote our range of fun and informative roadshows materials which will encourage audiences to learn something new about food waste reduction.

These materials include:

  • The Wheel of Food – where will the arrow land? An interactive game to encourage knowledge of key food waste facts
  • Know Your Onions! - Guess how much food we waste - a giant sized card game, ideal for interaction with adults and children alike, to educate about national food waste levels
