Fair Food Challenge Testimonial
““It was great to have Leftover Lovers food come to campus. Young people really struggle knowing how to make the most of their food and their keen to save money while at the same time caring about the environment and battling with all that comes with being out of home for the first time. It was obvious that at the end of the workshop the participants were beaming and feeling great about their newfound skills.””

Although we did demo so delicious eggplant parma toasties, and banana delish toasties (which are as excellent cold the next day, as they are warm).
