Brighton’s Local Heroes vs. Food Waste

“I say waste is a lack of imagination.”
That’s what Michael Kennard of The Compost Club told us—and it shaped everything.

In a city that prides itself on sustainability, Brighton still battles a massive food waste problem. With the Council rolling out its first-ever food waste collection service, we asked: what have local heroes been doing all this time?

This short documentary follows grassroots changemakers like Michael from The Compost Club and Paul from The Real Junk Food Project Brighton as they tackle food insecurity and redefine how communities care for their waste.
