The Food Foundation Podcast
The Food Foundation
The Food Foundation podcast is the voice of the charity that tackles the growing challenges facing the UK’s food. Reporting from the frontline of food insecurity, it reveals the gaps in the food system and the inspiring initiatives that are fixing them. From the stigma of free school meals to the enormous impact of holiday activities and food on hungry children, we find the stories that change lives, bind communities and make the politicians sit up and listen. The podcast, then named Right2Food, was the winner of the 2021 Guild of Food Writers' Awards for Investigative Food Work.Producer: Gilly Smith for the Food Foundation Hosted on Acast.
