Transition Bookham's monthly open meeting for February 2011 is next Wednesday, the 16th, and we're very fortunate to have Carmela Tomkins (who worked with Surrey waste partnership, in support of the 'Love Food Hate Waste' campaign) coming to talk to us about reducing food waste.

With 8.3 million tonnes of food and drink going to waste each year in the UK, come and hear what Carmela has to say, and see her demonstrating ways to use up 'leftovers'.

As usual the meeting is from 7.30pm to 9.30pm at St Nicolas church's Pastoral Centre (in the rear corner of the churchyard, accessible from the path behind the clock tower, or the alleyway next to the new barbers in Church Street), in the centre of Great Bookham.
