WRAP has released the latest Food Waste Reduction Roadmap Progress Report which updates on progress by the UK food and drink sector towards the Courtauld 2030 food waste target and SDG 12.3.

Highlights include:
- 1,000 tonnes of food worth £365 million saved from waste.
- 670,000 tonnes of GHG emissions potentially avoided.
- 145 million meals redistributed.
