Do you LOVE FOOD HATE WASTE?

Camden Council’s Project Lunchbox http://www.camden.nsw.gov.au/page/project_lunchbox.html aims to raise awareness of the impact of food waste and encourage the local community to reduce how much 'good' food we waste.

Project Lunchbox uses a three-pronged approach to address food waste by facilitating:

· ‘Blog Bites ’Blogging Workshop and Competition (Closes Friday 4 April 2014)

· Children’s Book Writing Competition (Closes Monday 7 April 2014)

· Trivia ‘Bites’ Night on Friday 11 April 2014

Visit http://www.camden.nsw.gov.au/page/project_lunchbox.html for further details about the competitions and trivia night.

Project Lunchbox is funded through the NSW Environment Protection Authority’s (EPA) Love Food Hate Waste<http://www.lovefoodhatewaste.nsw.gov.au> (LFHW) Program.

Whilst the Blogging Competition and Workshops specifically related to young people, the Children’s Book Writing Competition (below) may also appeal to some younger people (and there are age categories that apply).

The competition includes three age categories*:

· Open – 18 years and over

· Young People – 11–18 years

· Children – 5–11 years

* based on your age at 1 March 2014

The Trivia Night is open to the broader community but may be of interest to young people as well.
