Public sector caterers challenged
On the 16th of November, 2009 we held the inaugural Good Food on the Public Plate awards to celebrate public sector caterers from across the capital who are using sustainable produce. Rosie Boycott, Chair of the London Food Board presented the awards at a ceremony at City Hall to caterers the project has worked with in the past year who have made significant changes to their catering and or supply chains. Next year the project would like every public sector caterer in London to enter. Click here for more information
Good Food on the Public Plate
The project is now in its third phase. It will build on past work to increase the proportion of healthy and sustainable food in the meals served by the public sector.
Previously the work of Good Food on the Public Plate has focused on hospitals. This new phase of the project has broadened the scope to include universities, schools, prisons, government departments, and care homes as well as continuing to work with hospitals. Find out more here
