New Food Research Collaboration report shows lack of transparency in food industry lobbying

Orla Delargy
Former Head of Public Affairs Orla Delargy left Sustain in 2024.

Orla was Head of Public Affairs for Sustain and also lead the communications for Sustain’s work on Good Food Trade. She worked to promote the opportunities and threats for food, farming and fishing as we exited the EU.

She has over 15 years’ experience of communications strategy and planning, media handling, corporate communications, public affairs and reputation management in two Whitehall Departments, the private and third sectors. Orla joined Sustain from LEON restaurants, where she led a campaign to save universal infant free school meals, an issue which helped shift voter intentions in the 2017 national elections.

She also led on the communications for the launch of LEON on mainland Europe. Before joining LEON, she was head of campaign strategy and chief press officer at the Department for Education, advising ministers on communications around high priority areas such as changes to testing, the national curriculum, teacher recruitment and the school food plan.
