It is funded under the Environmental Protection  Agency’s National Waste Prevention Programme (NWPP). Stop Food Waste has two key functions: to educate the general public about  food waste and how it can be prevented, and to promote home composting through hands-on demonstration. This national programme  involves a wide range of countrywide initiatives but also works closely with local authorities in support of their own projects.
