The unsung heroes transforming food systems across the UK

Leticija Petrovic, the local food policy lead at the Food Foundation revisits a subject we covered a few months ago in our series of Pod Bites, how place-based, community-led food initiatives can help people access affordable, healthy and sustainable food.

She looks more deeply into just three of the 10 models in this collaborative study by the University of Leeds and the Food Foundation, using the Priority Places for Food Index developed by the Consumer Data Research Centre in collaboration with the consumer group, Which? The aim: to gather data about the risk of food insecurity across seven areas in the UK and identify neighbourhoods which are most vulnerable to the rises in the cost of living.

With Professor Michelle Morris of the University of Leeds, Juli Thompson of Food Savers, Bradford, Megan Weimann of The Warehouse in Newtonards and Reeni Kennedy-Boyle of Fyne Futures Ltd in Argyle and Bute.
