ShefFood is the food partnership for Sheffield. We are a cross-sector partnership of local public agencies, businesses, academic and community organisations committed to working together to create a more sustainable food system for Sheffield.
Why should you attend?
Your participation will significantly increase the ability of Sheffield to achieve a Sustainable Food Cities Bronze Award by 2020, which is all about recognising Sheffield as a city taking action across '6 Key Issues':
1. Promoting healthy and sustainable food to the public
2. Tackling food poverty, diet-related ill health and access to affordable healthy food
3. Building community food knowledge, skills, resources and projects
4. Promoting a vibrant and diverse sustainable food economy
5. Transforming catering and food procurement
6. Reducing waste and the ecological footprint of the food system
What will you be asked to do?
The workshop will involve a series of engaging activities designed to help capture what you and your organisation are
doing towards achieving significant positive change on a range of key food issues. By the end of the session we will help
you to:
- become an active, connected member of ShefFood
- identify your roles and relationships within the Sheffield food system
- explore your positive social impact on health, communities and livelihoods
- recognise and celebrate your work towards the Sustainable Food Cities '6 Key issues'
