Our charity partner FareShare UK yesterday marked its 30th anniversary with an event in parliament. We're proud to support their efforts to tackle food insecurity by redistributing the 4 million tonnes of food that goes to waste every year, and all of the work they do supporting local charities and community groups. We launched a multi strand partnership with FareShare in 2022 but were also collaborating with them before that. Over the entire duration of our relationship with FareShare we've donated more than 900 tonnes of food and supported the provision of the equivalent of 2 million meals, but we look forward to doing even more. You can find out more about how we support FareShare on our website. https://lnkd.in/exn9eQbh #EnrichingLifePlan #Sustainability

As the eyes of the world move to the upcoming #COP29 We're happy to be among the major businesses supporting bold and ambitious actions from the UK Government to address the global climate crisis. Many businesses fully understand the need to invest in the climate transition and adaptation but clear policy and commitments to global frameworks make it easier for companies to go further and faster; taking more organisations with us! Well done again to Corporate Leaders Groups for convening such a strong voice from business. Our own commitment to sustainability and how we contribute to many of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals is set out in our Enriching Life Plan.” https://lnkd.in/eDrH73j8 #BGALetter #BGANetZero #CLGUK

For #BlackHistoryMonth this year, colleagues and our multicultural ERG have chosen to work with leading educational charity Show Racism the Red Card . All sites have been holding their own Wear Red days to demonstrate their allyship and have been discussing different forms of racism. As part of efforts to attract more diverse talent to Premier Foods, head office also hosted a large group of Year12 students who had tasters on our sales, manufacturing and apprenticeship opportunities before a cookery session. Featuring colleagues from Ashford, Stoke and St Albans:

Our graduate opportunities for next year go live in November and we're delighted to be featured in The Sun newspaper today, which highlights what a great employer the food industry can be. As our Group HR & Comms Director David Wilkinson says, "We’re committed to building confidence as well as skills and behaviours, and supporting personal growth. It's a great place to grow a career. People tell us our culture is what sets us apart, and for graduates joining us Premier Foods is a place where you can thrive by being yourself." https://lnkd.in/esEqeKsY #FoodAndDrinkCareers #MmmakeYourMark

Our Bisto brand is excited to introduce new Bisto Winter Spice gravy. This gravy is infused with warming cinnamon and cardamom, providing a rich, tasty finishing touch to beef dishes such as roast beef or beef wellington. Available exclusively in Tesco.

We recently ran a webinar on reducing food waste, as part of our strategy to support our suppliers with their ESG activity. 100 attendees from our supply chain joined the event, with presentations from Premier Foods Procurement and Environment teams, as well as food waste experts from WRAP (Waste and Resources Action Programme), a global environmental action NGO. This was part of our ongoing supplier ESG engagement strategy and was designed to encourage all raw material suppliers and co-manufacturers to support our aim to reduce food waste across their own business and the wider food and drink sector. We asked our suppliers to take the following action after the webinar: ◾ Further reduce food loss and waste within their own business and support their own suppliers to do the same ◾ Align with a Food Waste industry initiative and set targets to halve Food Waste by 2030 ◾ Commit to sending zero food waste to landfill ◾ Focus on delivering the best environmental option for dealing with any waste, with prevention being the best option overall.

With sites all over the country, we’re proud of the commitment so many of our colleagues show towards good causes which are local to them. A team of fifteen from our Carlton bakery in Yorkshire recently raised over £1,700 for Yorkshire Air Ambulance by taking on the Blencathra and Sharp Edge Walk in Cumbria. This is a tricky hike that climbs more than 850metres and takes 4 hours to complete. Well done to everyone who took part.

Congratulations to everyone who's worked so hard on this new partnership - at Premier Foods and DHL Supply Chain . One of our ambitions for this collaboration is to reduce our CO2 emissions, and we're already seeing an impact.

Today is #antislaveryday . Latest global figures show that the estimated total number of people living in modern slavery at any given time is 50 million. Of that figure, 27.6 million are trapped in forced labour, the majority of which occurs in the private sector. As part of our commitment to raising awareness of modern slavery and its impact, yesterday many of our colleagues joined a webinar to hear guest speakers from Unseen UK and Morrisons share real life examples of modern slavery within the UK, as well as practical advice on how to spot the signs and raise concerns. We also have a comprehensive Human Rights Policy to ensure we are respecting and protecting the Human Rights of everyone we employ, the people who work in our supply chains and those who live in the wider communities in which we operate both nationally and internationally. https://lnkd.in/epFxtkxs
