Rosa, a volunteer, prepares a vegetable stew for the Elder Stubbs allotments, run by Restore, an Oxfordshire-based mental health charity that helps people to recover from mental illness, develop skills and lead meaningful lives. A part of the food served at the Elder Stubbs is sourced from the Oxford Food Bank.
The Oxford Food Bank is a food charity with a double mission: feed the community and protect the environment. It collects surplus food from local supermarkets and wholesalers and delivers it for free to around 60 registered charities in the Oxford area. Even though the food received is rejected by supermarkets as "surplus" food, it is good quality food that would have been thrown away - most often because of a date stamped on it. "Best Before" is still good after.

Note: This photo is part of an ongoing project on food waste that I have been zooming in over the past years. Most of these photos have never been published anywhere and have sat on an external hard-drive for too long. I decided to use more of Flickr, so over the next months I will be uploading here photos taken for the project (aiming at one-per-day). If you're interested in the subject, keep an eye on the "Love Food Not Waste" album.

While one billion people across the planet suffer from hunger, the amount of food wastage taking place every single day in developed countries is obscene. With up to a third of all food thrown away, producing food simply to bin it is a waste of all those precious resources – land, water, energy – that were put into growing, processing and transporting it.
My photo project, ‘Love Food Not Waste’, illustrates some of the levels of the food waste reduction pyramid: Feeding Landfills is the lowest level in the hierarchy and should be illegal; Feeding AD Plants, which, despite not being the best way of dealing with surplus food, at least generates modest amounts of energy, and also fertiliser; and Feeding Bellies, where food waste heroes such as freegans and food charities help rescue some of the surplus food and re-distribute it to people in need.
Vlada, an Oxford Food Bank volunteer, delivers rescued food to Donnington Doorstep, a community family centre, family centre, with drop-in sessions, activities, home-cooked food and more, for local children and their parents/carers.
