The three simple and significant actions we rated London Boroughs on are:
- Running the Marine Stewardship Council Fish and Kids project with primary schools in the borough, which is free of charge, see: www.fishandkids.org
- Improving school meals with the Big Lottery funded Food for Life programme, which at Silver award level means excluding endangered fish (in spring 2012, excluding endangered fish will be moved to Bronze award level), see: www.foodforlife.org.uk
- Achieving Marine Stewardship Chain of Custody certification for food bought by the Borough and/or at least some of its publicly funded institutions, see: www.msc.org
