PAY IT FORWARD

🌱 Compost Collective Leeds, is a city–wide community composting scheme revolutionising the reduction of food waste. 

🌱 Did you know 200 kilos of food waste is produced by the average Leeds household each year? Yet 40% of this can be transformed into valuable free soil by being composted?

🌱 IMPORTANTLY not everyone can compost in their homes, and community composting is the solution.  

What can you do to help build the compost revolution?

Why not ‘Pay it Forward’ and donate this Black Friday?

Inspired by the best and brightest from across the UK, we’ve designed a city-wide community composting system that already has 9 successful composting schemes sprinkled across the city.

If you ‘Pay it Forward’ this Christmas, more communities across Leeds can compost their food waste.
