Twenty three people from across our neighbourhood met at Marcus Lipton youth club on 27th February to give their ideas about how we can work together for a sustainable food neighbourhood. People from 13 organisations were supported by Soraya Clarke to identify joint projects that would help us become a neighbourhood where no-one struggles for healthy, affordable food.
Ideas from the day include: * “build what we have” with joint outreach and leadership programmes * a weekly market * joint cultural programmes around food. Food Five Ways steering group will meet soon to put together more detailed plans for these.
