Southampton Food Partnership about to form

Please respond to Thomas Munday if interested

Dear Green Network Members
As you know, acting on food is a vital part of tackling the UK’s biggest social, economic, and environmental challenges. From obesity, ill-health, and food poverty, to waste, climate change and biodiversity loss, our current food system is causing some of our biggest problems. But food is also part of the solution.
In Southampton, we want to form an inclusive, cross-sector food partnership, where public agencies, community organisations, businesses, and academics can collaborate to create lasting change by agreeing on priorities and action for the local area.
We know how valuable the work of groups such as yours is, especially to educate and champion the importance of green projects in the city. So, if you are linked to food growing, or any other aspect of food, we would love for you to get involved. Please contact thomas.munday@southampon.gov.uk to find out more about the partnership and details of our forthcoming meetings.
Thank you
 
 
Kindest regards,
 
Thomas Munday (he/him)
Public Health Registrar, Wessex
