The Brighton & Hove Food Partnership is working for a healthier, more sustainable food system for the city. We believe all residents should be able to enjoy food that is good for health, respects environmental limits and supports a vibrant farming and food economy. We drive forward progress on the city's food strategy ‘Spade to Spoon: Digging Deeper’, campaign on local and national food issues and deliver a range of community-based cookery, nutrition and growing projects.
We undertake lobbying work and provide training and information to achieve:
- better access to affordable fresh, seasonal food
- more locally produced food
- more opportunities to learn to cook and grow food
- a better understanding of the links between food and health
- a better understanding of where food comes from.
We are a not-for-profit, membership body that brings together community organisations, statutory services, local businesses and individual residents. Membership is free and open to anyone who lives or works in Brighton & Hove and wants to support our work. Members receive a monthly email update and our quarterly printed newsletter as well as the chance to come to member events.
