    • Meat Free Meal Day

      Published 13/07/21

      A very popular event that took place during Earth Week was the Meat Free Meal Day on Friday 25th June. Everyone had the option to use phones to take pictures of their meal in order to upload it onto EcoSpot, to help us to reach our target for meat free meals, which we have now reached. There were a number of meat free choices ranging from burgers, cheese and onion pasty, pizza and more. This is a new scheme that we would love to put into place from the beginning of the next academic year, called Monthly Meat-Free Mondays. It allows students to eat delicious, healthy meals while helping the environment.
