General elections are a fantastic opportunity to advocate for change and build relationships with those that will be holding the seats of power in the UK over the coming years. With the 2024 election called quickly, and significant changes in the makeup of parliament predicted, there has never been a better time to talk to politicians about a better food system.

At Sustain, we believe that changing the way we produce food can offer solutions to so many of the serious challenges we face as a society. A more affordable, healthier and sustainable food system will help tackle the cost of living, improve everyone’s chances of a long and healthy life, secure better livelihoods for nature-friendly farmers, and help to ensure a liveable climate whilst restoring the clean water and natural systems on which we all depend.

Many of the policies, standards, and the availability and priorities of large amounts of public funding, are decided by MPs and their advisors in Parliament. This is why the General Election to be held on 4 July 2024 is so important, and is the perfect time for our movement to come together and unite behind our shared vision of a better system of food and farming.
