Stop companies marketing junk food to children online

A new report released by the Children's Food Campaign examines the topsy turvy world of the regulations that are supposed to (but don’t) protect children from online marketing of junk food.

Academies do not have to apply the standards which safeguard school food. There is a real danger of poor quality food creeping back on the menu and junk-food vending machines edging their way back onto school grounds.
