Dear Corporate Services,

It autocorrected itself, sorry!

Yes, I would still like to know the following information please:

How much food do you throw away each year on campus?

What is the total spend on the food a year?

Could I please have the annual figures from 2013 onwards.

Yours sincerely,

Fiona Flanagan

Dear Fiona,

I am afraid we do not hold all of the information you have requested, as our catering is provided by a sub-contractor, and the majority of food purchased would have been through them with a small portion purchased by our training restaurant.

We do not have the exact figures for food waste each year, but based on the number of bins at the college we estimate we generate about 1.2 tonnes of organic waste per month.

Kind regards,
