Reports: Food Security. Sustain responds to EFRA Select Committee inquiry

In our submission we consider multiple factors that impact UK’s food security, including the war in Ukraine, rising input costs, cost of living crisis, labour shortages, commodity prices and the climate and nature emergency. We argue that food security does not equal a healthy diet and we advise the term ‘nutritional security’ instead.

Reports: Through the Back Door: An exposé of educational material produced by the food industry

For many years parents and a range of public health groups have warned that children are being heavily targeted with marketing for junk food on, for example, TV, the internet and on posters near schools. However, largely hidden from parents, many companies have been developing materials for schools that are cleverly designed to promote their products in schools. These 'teaching packs' are usually available to download from company websites, although some packs are sent directly to schools. They are supposed to provide schools and children with factual and impartial ways of understanding the world around them. But this research by the Children's Food Campaign has found a series of highly concerning features with this material.
