Relish recognises the only way to successfully recycle is to raise awareness.

Local Communities

Relish encourages both schools and parents in all aspects of menu and food sampling. Relish hold tasting sessions during parent evenings and attend events to ensure all tastes and requirements are catered for. Relish supports many school activities and social events which has proved very successful in raising funds that enable schools to improve local facilities.

Packaging & Waste

We encourage our suppliers to think about the impact on the environment. One of our suppliers were the first in our sector to introduce biofuel deliveries and are the only supplier in the country using a hydrogen fleet. Relish ensures that all customers are made aware of how much packaging is used during the school term and promotes where possible removal of single used plastic.
