Foodrise - for climate, nature, justice

Foodrise - for climate, nature, justice We are transforming the food system for climate, nature, and justice.

Feedback is an environmental organisation that campaigns to end food waste at every level of the food system. We catalyse action to eliminate food waste globally, working with governments, international institutions, businesses, NGOs, grassroots organisations and the public to change society’s attitude toward wasting food. With a track record of changing the policies of some of the world's biggest

food companies and reaching out to millions of people through our projects, our innovative campaigning style has helped to elevate food waste from a non-issue several years ago to one now recognised as an urgent international priority. Our campaigns have existed since 2009 and have expanded to now include: Feeding the 5000, Gleaning Network, The Pig Idea, Stop Dumping and the FSE Network. Feedback is the charity that now governs these five campaigns, as well as our wider ongoing work influencing public attitudes, government policies and business strategies on food waste globally.

🎉Wiltshire's land-based factory fish farm has been STOPPED!

Following legal action, Wiltshire Council has overturned their decision to approve an intensive land-based salmon farm in Downton.

Our allies at Communities Against Factory Farming challenged the council over its failure to consider animal welfare harms and serious risks to the nearby River Avon ecosystem.

Land-based salmon facilities are factory farms, reliant on the unsustainable extraction of wild fish as feed and are plagued by shocking mass mortality events where thousands of fish die. Further reporting has exposed shocking examples of chemical leaks, pollution, tank collapses, and fish escapes that could impact wild salmon populations through interbreeding.

The success of this legal pushback sets a vital precedent, sending an unmistakable signal to councils across the UK; intensive salmon factory farms will face relentless resistance and have no place in the UK.

How can you help us now…

The legal proceedings undertaken by Communities Against Factory Farming for this case still need to be covered. If you can, please help Communities Against Factory Farming cover the legal costs they spent stopping this intensive fish farm using the link below.

Together we can halt the development of land-based salmon farming in the UK for good! 💪

We recently found forever chemicals in EVERY product we tested from Tesco🤯

The response has been overwhelming, with people expressing huge concern about the results of the testing, which was carried out by the University of Birmingham.

We've seen lots of questions, with over 700 comments on the Daily Mail coverage of this story. Our campaigner Nina tackles the main 3 here: why did we only test Tesco, what does this mean for our daily lives, and who even did the research?

In case you missed it, we tested 30 food samples from Tesco for PFAS (also called forever chemicals) and found PFAS in every single one, so now we're holding supermarkets to account and demanding transparency.

👉️ Here's what you can do.
Send an email to Tesco CEO Ken Murphy to ask how he will ensure Tesco's products are safe: https://action.foodrise.org.uk/page/191262/action/1?ea.tracking.id=instagram-profile

And Vogue, if you ever want to do a real 73 questions with us, we're all ears!

Too many people across the UK can't find or afford healthy food where they live. Families are having to fight the system just to feed their kids well. And children are growing up in food environments that work against them, not for them. New figures from the Food Foundation's Broken Plate report reinforce that this problem is only getting worse.

That's why we're supporting Recipe For Change's We're Fed Up! campaign, calling for six practical changes to help create a healthier, fairer food system.

Everyone deserves access to healthy, affordable food, no matter where they live. If you agree, add your name recipeforchange.org.uk/we-are-fed-up/

We're feeling inspired, re-energised, and reminded of what’s possible after last week's London Climate Action Week 2026!

A huge thank you to those who joined our event, 'Dismantling Corporate Power in Food Systems, for Climate, Nature, and Justice' to explore how corporate control of the food system is driving climate injustice.

We heard from Sondhya Gupta (WildFish) about the ecological toll of commercial salmon farming, Nick Wells & Alice Markham (OrganicLea) on bridging the gaps in UK horticulture education and land access, and Maya Pardo (Communities Against Factory Farming CAFF) on how communities are winning on the ground, by strategically using planning laws to block factory farms.

In our latest blog, Foodrise campaigners Molly and Nina share their highlights from the week. Read now: https://foodrise.org.uk/london-climate-action-week-diary/

Over the last 8 years, we’ve been running projects across Buckinghamshire to improve health, wellbeing and skills within local communities through food education, skills development and collaboration.

Now, with our projects coming to a close, we're gleaning from our final harvest in the region!

Our latest blog celebrates some of our key achievements, from running cooking and nutrition sessions for young people and older adults, to distributing slow cookers to those experiencing nutrition poverty, and organising internships across the food and farming sector for young people through our flagship Green Futures project.

We've also brought together environmental and sustainable food organisations with education institutions and youth organisations to share knowledge, ideas and build long-term partnerships which will hopefully continue to flourish.

Although the projects are coming to an end, we hope that their legacy will live on in those we have nurtured through our work.

A huge thank you to Rebecca for co-ordinating the project, and all our fantastic partners.

Shocking news: Tesco is selling us food contaminated with toxic 'forever chemicals'.

"Dozens of Tesco's fish, dairy and meat products have been found to contain chemicals linked to liver problems and cancer, according to an 'alarming' new analysis" in DailyMail

Our study in collaboration with the University of Birmingham tested a range of meat, dairy and fish products from Tesco, and found that EVERY SINGLE ONE contained forever chemicals.

As Foodrise's Executive Director, Carina Millstone says: "Tesco must stop profiteering on the back of the nation's health and take immediate steps to remove all forever chemicals from its products."

We need to ramp up the pressure and tell Tesco to do the right thing.

📢 Tell Tesco to stop selling us ‘forever chemicals’

We’ve just discovered that Tesco, the UK’s biggest supermarket, is selling us food containing toxic PFAS, also known as forever chemicals.

PFAS are toxic substances which don’t break down naturally and can accumulate in our bodies, linked to serious health risks including cancers, immune suppression, infertility and developmental problems.

We commissioned the University of Birmingham to test a range of meat, dairy and fish products from Tesco, and shockingly, found that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM contained forever chemicals.

This means that Tesco, which makes BILLIONS in profit every year, is selling us - knowingly or unknowingly - toxic food products.

This is a scandal.

That's why we need you, and as many others as possible, to demand that Tesco urgently reviews its food safety standards and commits to eradicating harmful PFAS from its products.

Today is Tesco's Annual General Meeting (AGM) - the day for shareholders to voice concerns and hold the supermarket giant accountable. There's no better time to get their attention.

From its beginnings as a Foodrise project, Alchemic Kitchen is stepping into an exciting new chapter as an independent CIC!

Alchemic Kitchen began in 2018 as a development kitchen in Merseyside, transforming surplus fruit and vegetables into jams, chutneys and ketchups to reduce food waste.

Today, Alchemic Kitchen is an action-led social enterprise working with communities and individuals to improve food access, create opportunities for knowledge exchange, and advocate for better food systems that support people and the planet.

In our latest blog, we reflect on Alchemic Kitchen’s story from its beginnings to the variety of ways it is now working to transform our food system: the Queen of Greens mobile greengrocer which provides fresh fruit and vegetables to ‘food deserts’, Disco Chop events that produce meals out of vegetables that would otherwise be wasted, Apple gleaning at Speke Hall, and advocacy through research and building partnerships.
