The Big Food Rescue

The Big Food Rescue follows the anti-food waste movement as it aims to make a dent in the 10 million tonnes of food thrown away in the UK every year.

David Cairns and Robin Aitken set up a charity to stop edible food going to landfill and began delivering it to other charities to help people in need.

In this five-part series, David and Robin travel to London to help set up a new charity. They will be applying the model they use in Oxford but on a much larger scale – can it work in a city 55 times the size?

The series also visits other inventive schemes around the country which form the national movement to reduce food waste.
