THE Zero Waste project based at the Ross-on-Wye Community Gardens are holding a fund-raising event featuring the newly formed children’s Ross Academy Choir and the Ross Penyard Singers.

The fundraiser on Saturday June 28, between 4pm and 6pm at the gardens in Old Gloucester Road, will give visitors an opportunity to find out more about the project which aims to reduce food waste within Ross, while providing food to those most in need and those who are conscious of their impact on the environment.

Volunteers collect produce from local supermarkets which would otherwise end up in landfill. The produce is then available to all members of the public for free via the Zero Waste Stall which is open six mornings a week.
