Events Bridging the Gap

#FoodTalks: Where next for making organic food accessible for all?

Webinar Tuesday 14 November 2023 18:00 19:00

Join us for a #FoodTalks workshop asking what is Bridging the Gap, how is it addressing these issues and what are the six areas of focus it is using as a starting point?

Organic food that is good for health, for the planet and affordable for all hits a number of health and climate targets that the UK is committed to. However, policy commitments that would enable everyone, regardless of their income level, to access climate-friendly fruit and vegetables, don’t follow through.

Sustain’s Bridging the Gap is exploring how these issues can be addressed. Join us to find out about the approaches the programme is focused on to make climate and nature friendly food accessible to everyone.

In this online talk, you will hear from five expert speakers on the subject of the affordability of organic food, and the policy commitments required to make it accessible to all. There will be plenty of opportunities to raise issues and ask questions of your own, so please register today to join the discussion.

Speakers:

  • Julie Brown, Growing Communities, Director
  • Katie Palmer, Food Sense Wales, Programme Manager
