Stop Food Waste
Stop Food Waste have been running the National Master Composter Trainnig programme since 2009. Master Composters are individuals who are trained on all aspects of home composting and food waste prevention.
After receiving the hands on training our volunteers are expected to commit some of their time to work in their local communities to promote the Stop Food Waste messages.
Piloted in Frenchpark, Co. Roscommon in 2009, thirty people from local communities became Ireland’s first Master Composters. Since then over 300 Master Composters have been trained at 14 different demo sites throughout Ireland. Through this network of volunteers 60 local projects are currently in operation around the country. In addition to setting up specific projects our Master Composters have been actively involved in promoting Stop Food Waste at many different events both locally and nationally.
