The Lost Food Project: Rescuing Food, Changing Lives

The Lost Food Project is making a huge impact in the fight against food waste and hunger in Malaysia. Founded by Suzanne Mooney, the organisation rescues surplus food that would otherwise go to waste and redistributes it to those in need, providing nutritious meals to underprivileged communities. It's World Food Day today, and this year's theme is "right to foods for a better life and a better future" and we catch up with Suzanne to learn more about the pioneering food bank in Malaysia, and how The Lost Food Project is transforming lives, while also making sustainability a priority.
