The Doncaster-based Real Junk Food project campaigns to end food waste and runs a ‘pay as you feel’ cafe in Scot Lane catering for people who use food banks and struggle with the cost of food.
It is run entirely by a dedicated team of volunteers and was voted as the community winner at the Footprint Awards ceremony held in London recently.
