School students help open a Community Fridge to reduce food waste in Greater Manchester
- last year
Students at a secondary school in manchester are helping reduce food waste and make surplus food freely available to local people.
The Co-op Academy manchester has opened a community Fridge, manned by young volunteers, where anyone can exchange food that would otherwise go to waste.
The community fridge is open to everyone on Tuesdays between 3.30 and 4.30pm and is part of a growing initiative to tackle the environmental impact of food waste.
We went down to speak to students involved in running the project.
