* Let us know if you think things have improved in your Borough. We will update the map as more action happens. We are also pleased to hear about actions to improve welfare for pigs, chickens and cows raised for meat and dairy.
Note: Some London Boroughs have made commitments to use food produced to higher standards of animal welfare in their school meals, such as through committing to or achieving a Bronze or Silver award Food for Life Catering Mark. This is included under the separate school food heading in this report. Boroughs committed to action on sustainable fish may also use higher welfare fish produced to organic or RSPCA Freedom Food standards.
What can London Boroughs do? Adopt a cage-free egg policy and apply for a Good Egg Award.
